Pediatric Physical Therapy

Mizuta & Associates

Providing Developmental Building Blocks

Many times, children can benefit from physical therapy. At Mizuta & Associates our highly trained therapists have experience in pediatric assessment and treatment. We specialize in seeing infants, children, and adolescents that are facing challenges such as developmental delay, trauma at birth, orthopedic disorders, spinal problems, limb length discrepancies, cerebral palsy, sports injuries, and rehabilitation from orthopedic surgeries.  Our therapists are certified in torticollis and plagiocephaly treatment.  We incorporate fun activities into rehabilitation programs to keep the pediatric patients engaged in their programs.  Read below for more information regarding some of the most common reasons that we see pediatric patients.

Common Reasons for PT

We will let you know exactly how much you will owe if physical therapy is covered before we schedule your initial evaluation.
  • DO YOU HAVE CHANGING FACILITIES?

  • WHAT WILL I BE DOING AT PHYSICAL THERAPY?
    During your initial evaluation, your therapist will gather information about your medical history, as well as perform tests, measure your range of motion, strength, and performance in order to establish a baseline for your treatment. At the end of this visit, your therapist will give you a plan of action as to what to expect for your physical therapy treatment.
  • HOW LONG ARE MY PHYSICAL THERAPY APPOINTMENTS?
    You will spend a full hour with a licensed physical therapist for each appointment. We do not use any technicians or aides at our clinic.
