PEDIATRIC PHYSICAL THERAPY

Tiny Tots PT offers consultations, comprehensive physical therapy evaluations, and treatment sessions for children from birth and up throughout Sioux Falls and surrounding communities.

​

Whether you have general questions about how your child is developing or you have need for PT management for a child with complicated medical conditions, I can adapt programming to suit your child's/family's unique needs!​  Specifically trained in in the treatment of pediatric postural asymmetries using the TMR Method ©, I am able to utilize this method for a gentle tear free approach to improving mobility by correcting stiffness and postural imbalances that can contribute to developmental problems/delays in achieving symmetrical motor milestones. Parents and caregivers are instructed in how to snuggle and play with their child in family friendly daily routines without having to create at-home 'therapy time' and also without having to do painful stretching!  PT interventions may also include treatment techniques learned through the Levels A, B, & C Dynamic Movement Intervention.  DMI is the
fastest growing, internationally recognized manual therapy technique that helps children reach their gross motor milestones.

DMI harnesses the power of

neuroplasticity to make rapid, long lasting changes in a child’s brain so they can learn new skills, reach their developmental milestones, and improve their quality of life in accordance with the ICF ( International
Classification of Functioning, Disability,
and Health, WHO) framework.

 PT services address postural & motor control, balance & equilibrium skills, gait, muscular strength & flexibility, orthotics & bracing, safety awareness, gravitational insecurity, coordination skills and developmental milestones.

​

  • Babies with Torticollis/Tortisoma & Developmental Delays
