Is Your Child Living with Pediatric Pain? Physical Therapy Can Help

Pediatric pain is something that can occur for several different reasons, but most commonly is the result of a play or sport injury.

As proud as you are of your child’s bravery on the playground or playing field, a part of you still frets over the potential for injury. It’s only natural to be concerned about sprains, strains, accident injuries, and overuse injuries in active kids. The good news is that neither you nor your child is completely helpless against pediatric pain. 

A strong, agile body is a must for preventing sports or play injuries that lead to pediatric pain. If your child has an obvious muscle weakness or other functional limitation, physical therapy can help minimize that obstacle to improve athletic safety and performance. Our Palmyra, MO or Florence, SC physical therapists can evaluate your child’s balance, coordination, stance, gait, muscle strength, and range of motion for any issues that might need improvement. Specific physical therapy exercises can then be prescribed to correct those issues before your child takes the field.

If your child has developed pediatric pain, contact our Palmyra, MO or Florence, SC physical therapy office today to schedule an appointment!

  • Educating you and your child on common injuries for his or her sport.
