Pediatric physical therapy is beneficial to children with mild to severe developmental problems that may be due to known or unknown causes. For these children, intervention is a critical component in allowing them to function independently.
At Beelieve, our ultimate goal is that your children will reach their maximum potential in our program. Through careful discussion with you and your child, along with a detailed physical examination, we will create an individualized treatment plan that targets your child’s specific needs and goals.
Our knowledgeable physical therapy team is passionate about promoting independence in our (birth to age 21) patients so that they may be able to participate in and enjoy their daily activities. Our team sees children from infancy all the way through adolescence and we work closely with parents and families as well as any of the child’s doctors, therapists, specialists or teachers. This collaboration allows us to develop an effective and comprehensive treatment plan for your child and his/her individual needs.
