Pediatric Physical Therapy Services: Helping Your Child Reach Their Full Potential
At Revive Physical Therapy, we specialize in helping children overcome physical challenges that may affect their development and mobility. Whether your child is dealing with delayed milestones, muscle tone issues, or other concerns, our expert pediatric therapists provide compassionate, individualized care to promote optimal growth and physical function.
Our pediatric therapy services are tailored to address a wide range of conditions, including developmental delays, neurological injuries, and musculoskeletal disorders. Our goal is to help your child achieve their full physical potential in a fun, engaging environment.
Conditions We Treat in Pediatric Physical Therapy
We provide expert care for children facing a variety of physical challenges. Some of the most common conditions we treat include:
- Delayed Milestones: If your child is not meeting physical milestones such as sitting, crawling, or walking, we create customized treatment plans to encourage their development and progress.
- Muscle Tone Issues (Hypertonia and Hypotonia): Whether your child has hypertonia (increased muscle tightness) or hypotonia (decreased muscle tone), our therapy techniques aim to improve strength, flexibility, and overall coordination.
- Torticollis: Torticollis causes a persistent head tilt in infants and can be corrected through gentle stretching exercises. Early intervention is key to restoring a full range of motion in the neck.
- Toe Walking: Toe walking, a condition where children walk on their toes instead of their full foot, can be addressed with therapy to improve muscle flexibility and gait patterns.
- Traumatic Injuries: From fractures to sprains, we offer comprehensive rehabilitation for children recovering from traumatic injuries. Our goal is to help them regain strength and mobility as quickly and safely as possible.
- Musculoskeletal Disorders: Children with conditions such as scoliosis, juvenile arthritis, and other musculoskeletal disorders benefit from our treatment plans focused on pain relief, improved alignment, and restored function.
- Neurological Injuries: For children who have suffered from brain or spinal cord injuries, our pediatric physical therapists work to enhance motor skills, balance, and independence.

How Soon Will You See Results?
The timeline for seeing improvements varies depending on your child’s condition, but many parents notice progress after just a few sessions. For conditions like torticollis or toe walking, rapid improvement is common. For more complex conditions, treatment may take longer, but with consistent therapy, your child will experience significant and lasting benefits.
Why Early Treatment Matters
Early intervention is crucial for addressing developmental delays, muscle tone issues, and other physical challenges. The longer treatment is delayed, the higher the risk of long-term complications. By starting pediatric physical therapy now, your child will have the best chance to overcome their challenges and develop the strength, coordination, and mobility they need to thrive.
