Physiotherapy and Occupational Therapy
We believe that when children (ages 0 to school age) and their families need help because of the various needs of their children:
- support is best provided in the child’s natural environment
- families are the decision makers in their children’s care
- families set the goals for their children and are essential in meeting them
- our services work best when family members are full participants in therapy
