Pediatric therapy services

Our expert clinicians provide caring and compassionate therapy that is fun, engaging and motivational using the latest methods, technology and treatments.

Pediatric Physical Therapy

Pediatric physical therapists (PTs) focus on enhancing a child's mobility, strength, flexibility, balance, coordination and movement. The primary objective is to improve the child's capacity to carry out daily activities and participate in their home, school and community environments.

Pediatric Occupational Therapy

Pediatric occupational therapists (OTs) work to optimize a child's functional independence in activities of daily living including self-care, education and play. OTs address sensory processing, fine motor and visual motor skills to help children participate in the activities they want and need to participate in.

Pediatric Speech-Language Pathology

Pediatric speech-language pathologists (SLPs) assess, diagnose, and treat disorders of language, articulation, motor speech, voice, fluency and social and play skills. SLPs also assist in feeding and
swallowing disorders or dysphagia.

Our treatment approach

Family involvement and support are central to your child’s success at Brooks. That’s why from day one, parents, guardians, siblings and grandparents are part of the treatment process—not just as decision makers, but as goal setters, support givers and hand holders.

Our outpatient clinics are equipped with state-of-the-art technology, including adaptive equipment, sensory integration resources, and specialized exercise equipment to cater to the diverse needs of pediatric patients. Designated pediatric areas are designed to be engaging and motivating for children, making therapy a positive and rewarding experience.
