In-Home and In-Clinic
Pediatric Physical & Occupational Therapy

At Moving and Grooving Physical Therapy, we take the pressure off of you as parents and alleviate your mom guilt. We understand how stressful it can be when your child isn’t meeting their milestones. From the moment your baby tries to hold their head up to taking their first steps, to riding a bike, we want to be there to help make it all happen! Our mission is to help them meet their milestones, one day at a time.

What Is Pediatric Physical & Pediatric Occupational Therapy?

Pediatric physical & occupational therapies are an excellent tool to utilize for your child’s motor and social-emotional development. These therapies help children (pediatrics) meet their gross & fine motor milestones, become more coordinated, improve posture, strength, mobility & flexibility, prevent surgery & help them become regulated in order to be ready to learn! These therapies help take your child 'off the bench' and move them onto the 'starting lineup,' throughout a variety of interventions. These include parent education, stretches, exercises, positioning, massage, and more, to help reach your child's goals. Pediatric physical & occupational therapies also incorporate toys and equipment to enhance your child’s overall enjoyment, fun & development! Physical & occupational therapy help make family activities such as going to the park, cooking, dressing, going on outings, doing arts & crafts, and play, easy & stress-free! They help take the guessing out of 'what could I be doing better to help my child succeed' and give you the resources you need to truly help your child be the best version of themselves. Utilizing these therapies helps build up your and your child's confidence, knowledge & endurance and helps prevent meltdowns. If your child struggles with any of their motor milestones (as addressed at your pediatrician 'well child check'), or you find yourself describing their movements or posture as 'weak, fragile, fussy, tight, loose, clumsy, lazy, slow, hating sports, a couch potato,' or similar, we're here to help them get back on track... both literally & figuratively!
