Pediatric physical therapy through play
As your child’s physical therapist, I come with 10 years of experience. With practice in the clinical setting, educational (school) setting and in providing home care, I have a great appreciation for how each of those systems work with regard to providing and receiving physical therapy services. I love working with children and have a keen ability to relate and still instruct them to achieve functional growth and progress. I believe in treating the child through play, giving the child choices and/or allowing the child to lead the activities. I also use music to enhance, motivate or as a distraction during therapy sessions.

I have vast experience in treating children (of all ages) with:
Hypotonia including Down’s syndrome and Fragile-X syndrome
Cerebral Palsy-including hemiplegia, diplegia and quadriplegia
Torticollis
Coordination disorder
Motor planning difficulties
Developmental delay
Balance difficulties.

I also have specialized training in the following:
Torticollis
Gait - Deviations and treatment for the child with Cerebral Palsy
Rehabilitation of the burn patient
Treatment of the child with Hypotonia
Treatment of the baby
Kinesio Taping for children with neuromotor impairments


Whether you have questions about development in general, a specific concern, or are interested in home therapy services for your child, please reach out to me by phone or email.

Sincerely,
Marie Kopmeyer
