Did you know❓Your shoes could be changing the way you walk?

Some shoes can alter the natural walking stride of healthy people and lead to bunions, hammer toes, or other foot and walking problems. This advice from physical therapists can positively impact foot health and movement for children, athletes, and older adults.

In physical therapy, we see every day how movement heals—restoring strength, easing pain, and uplifting
mind and spirit.💙

Trust your instincts. If your child seems behind in their movement skills, an early check-in can provide clarity and peace of mind. Our team can help you understand what’s typical and when extra support can help your child grow with confidence. 💙

It’s Random Acts of Kindness Week!
“A celebration of all the ways we can become a positive influence in each other’s lives. Even one small act of kindness can mean a great deal to somebody.” —
At CSTC we see every day how powerful small acts can be. A patient encouraging another in the waiting room. A sibling cheering during a session. A therapist taking an extra moment to truly listen and connect. These moments matter. 💛
For the children and families we serve, feeling seen, supported, and valued makes all the difference. Progress doesn’t just happen through goals — it happens through connection. And connection starts with kindness. 💛

📚Reading with your child is one of the best ways to introduce and explore new vocabulary—while creating meaningful language opportunities along the way.
✅Try This for Vocabulary Growth:
• Preview new or unfamiliar words before you begin reading.
• Talk about the words again after finishing the story.
• Encourage your child to get creative and use the new words in their own sentences!
✅Build Storytelling Skills, Too!
After reading, ask your child to retell the story in order. Help guide them with prompts like:
• Who was the main character?
• What did the character want?
• What was the problem?
• How was the problem solved?
These strategies target vocabulary expansion, auditory comprehension, narrative organization, memory, and expressive language skills. 🧠🗣️
