JOIN PMC'S VISION OF EMPOWERING EMOTIONALLY, SOCIALLY & PHYSICALLY STRONG CHILDREN.

Physical

Therapy

Our physical therapists can help children reduce pain and improve or restore mobility, order durable medical equipment including specialized seating and wheelchairs, and collaborate with other medical professionals to order custom orthotics. Our therapists treat gross motor and strength deficits and assess activities such as walking, running, sitting, and balancing. Using exercise and play as treatment tools, our physical therapists tailor their treatment plan to maximize each child’s gross motor function.

Occupational Therapy

Our Occupational therapists (OT’s) help children participate in the activities they want and need to do everyday. OT’s will evaluate children’s visual-perceptual skills, sensory skills, motor skills and coordination. Our play-based therapy interventions can treat a variety of conditions and help improve a child’s ability to perform their daily activities.

Speech

Therapy

Speech Language Pathologists (SLP’s) assess and treat children with speech, language, communication and feeding/swallowing difficulties including articulation disorders, receptive and expressive language disorders, stuttering/fluency disorders, cognitive-communication disorders, social communication disorders, and feeding/swallowing disorders. Our play-based therapy interventions are fun and engaging, which makes learning fun for your child.
