Physical Therapy
Physical therapy services help individuals increase their functional abilities and independence so they can participate more fully in all aspects of life. Therapy services assist to:
- Facilitate motor activity and learning
- Increase strength and endurance
- Improve balance and coordination
- Increase range of motion
- Relieve pain
Many people with developmental, physical and health-related disabilities can benefit from physical therapy.
Physical therapists can also evaluate and make recommendations for a variety of adaptive equipment to address needs for mobility, seating and positioning, and activities of daily living.
Services
We believe in a hands-on approach to therapy. Physical therapy practitioners work one-to-one with each participant. During an initial evaluation, the therapist and participant identify goals that can be addressed through physical therapy. The individualized treatment plan is modified as skills progress.
Facilities
Located in our LEED®-certified green building, Enable's state-of-the-art wellness center is an ideal environment for therapy services. A variety of equipment and resources are available to address the needs of each participant. The adjacent family waiting area features comfortable furniture, play activities, and an outdoor patio.
