Metropolitan Physical Therapy & Aquatics

Metropolitan Physical & Aquatic Therapy is committed to treating children in the most positive, caring environment.  We are dedicated medical professionals who are up-to-date on the medical needs of children.  We understand that a child with a disability or accident related injury needs to have fun when undergoing therapy and that a positive attitude is essential to the child's treatment success.

WHAT WE CAN DO:

Sensory Integration is a growing approach to treating pediatric patients with developmental delays.  This approach facilitates the child's motor learning process and works to integrate all sensory systems required to obtain gross motor as well as fine motor skills.

Here at Metropolitan Physical Therapy we also use our state-of-the-art whirlpool and Olympic size pool for our pediatric aquatic program.

The goal of Pediatric Physical Therapy is to help the child improve strength, range of motion, balance and coordination to achieve age-appropriate developmental milestones.  We work with each child to attain their optimal level of performance in their activities of daily living at home and at school.

Fitness for Kids
Over use injuries in children are too common in our younger population.  Prevention and sports specific fitness programs are now offered at Metropolitan Physical Therapy.  Programs are also available for children 7-20 years of age with a diagnosis of  obesity, scoliosis, arthritis and chronic fatigue syndrome. Each participant will be seen for a flexibility and fitness evaluation.  A comprehensive personalized program including aerobics, flexibility and strengthening program will be developed in a fun social environment.  Aquatics and small group exercise classes are also available.  Our Olympic size pool allows our children to enjoy achieving an optimum fitness level while swimming laps to exercise in a compression free atmosphere.
