At Fort Lee Physical Therapy, our pediatric physical therapists help children to develop, regain and improve their ability to move. Depending on the age of the child, or the child’s physical limitations, moving may be learning how to roll or to sit on his/her own. Physical therapists assess the following skills and areas:

    Muscle strength
    Range of motion
    Movement
    Balance
    Motor skills
    Comfort
    Pain

A pediatric physical therapy treatment program is made specifically for each child using fun and educational activities. The child may need one-on-one sessions with a physical therapist, a home exercise program, special equipment to move, help managing care with other therapists and teachers and splints or casts to hold an arm or leg.

Pediatric physical therapists at Fort Lee PT, Bergen County use special equipment made just for children along with toys and play in order to encourage children to do their best in therapy.
