Sky Lakes Rehabilitation Services
The pediatric therapy clinic offers therapy to patients between the ages of newborn to 18-years-old from occupational therapy (OT), physical therapy (PT), and speech language pathology (SLP).
Physical therapists (PT) are experts in movement and mobility, gross motor development, body function and strength, and promoting engagement in play and activity throughout the lifespan.
Occupational therapists (OTs) collaborate with children and their families to promote success in self-care, and support engagement in desired activities.
Our certified pediatric Speech-Language Pathologists help children (ages 0-18) improve quality of life by maximizing their communication potential and/or feeding/swallowing function.
Intervention for feeding focuses on increasing a child’s comfort with food through positive interactions. Our therapist works with the family to develop a child’s skills in interacting with, trying, and eating food with consideration of developmental stages. The goal is create skills a child is able to use with a variety of foods, outside of therapy sessions, and throughout his/her life.
Therapy for sensory processing difficulties focuses on creating sensory supports that promote a child’s ability to self-regulate. The therapist will work with a child and family to create an individualized sensory program that can be used outside of therapy sessions, at home, at school, and in other environments. Intervention includes a comprehensive assessment of a child’s sensory needs, extensive education in proper use of sensory tools, trial and guided practice in application of sensory supports, and creation of a tailored home program.
