🌟 Did you know? Pediatric physical therapy can be incredibly helpful for children with sensory processing challenges—whether they’re overwhelmed by input or craving more of it!
Some kids may:
➕ Seek constant movement, jumping, spinning, or crashing
➖ Avoid touch, textures, or certain types of play
⚖️ Struggle with balance, coordination, or feeling where their body is in space
Physical therapists help support sensory regulation through purposeful, play-based movement. We work on:
✔️ Core strength and coordination
✔️ Safe ways to meet sensory needs
✔️ Tolerance to everyday input like sound, movement, or touch
✔️ Confidence in navigating their environment
Every child processes the world differently—our PT team is here to help them feel more comfortable and capable in their bodies!
