Does My Child Need Physical Therapy?
Physical therapy is a specialized form of healthcare that focuses on improving physical function and mobility. For children, physical therapy addresses a range of challenges related to movement, coordination, strength, and balance. It aims to enhance a child’s ability to participate in daily activities and promote overall physical well-being. While many children naturally develop their physical abilities, some may face challenges that benefit from physical therapy.
