HEALTH WELLNESS & PREVENTION

When we are working with Pediatrics, it is out job as a physical therapist assistant to be promoting health and wellness to our kiddos and their families. Playing sports as a child is an important part of staying healthy and can teach children team work skills that are important when growing up. Another part of being a physical therapist assistant is doing active things in our community, plus being able to inform our patients when there is activities going on. 

The focus and benefit for this population is to make sure the children are having fun and making sure that they are engaged in the therapy we are doing otherwise it is hard to have a successful therapy session. We want to make sure that we are building them to be strong with the right nutrition and the right amount of exercise to make them strong to prevent them from having less injuries.
