Physical Therapy

The Importance of Pediatric Physical Therapy in Children's Lives

Physical therapy can improve children’s health. Life Step Therapy specializes in pediatric physical therapy, targeting strength, equilibrium, coordination, stamina, and sensory integration. Our trained therapists assess and treat babies through adolescents with mobility and physical activity problems due to injuries, congenital conditions, or illness or disease complications.

Why Motor Movement Is Essential in a Child's Life

Pediatric physical therapists improve self-sufficiency, motor development, strength, and range of motion. Core muscle fortification improves gross motor skills, play, self-care, and independence. This upgrade can help kids sit, write, draw, and color more efficiently and improve their school and home attention span. Strong core trunks help kids breathe, communicate, move, and use their limbs. Jogging, jumping, and climbing stairs become possible with physical therapy.
