School-Based Therapy Services: Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy & Speech Therapy
Providing meaningful help for students with special needs.
There are many factors involved in the proper development of a child including speech, visual perception, listening, sensory integration, physical abilities, fine motor skills and school. A child’s academic experience and ability to learn can be affected by many different problems. So we provide pediatric therapy not just in an outpatient setting but also in the schools. Our therapists provide services designed to support the student’s educational goals. This support allows students to achieve greater success in their educational programs.
