• Does your child seem to be falling behind in their gross motor skills? 

• Does the doctor say, "Give it time", but you're still concerned?

• Does your child seem to be struggling to keep up with other children or their peers? 

• Is your baby not doing what other babies their age are doing?

• Does your child appear to be clumsy? Do they trip and fall a lot? 

• Do they struggle to get dressed without losing their balance? 

• Can they climb at the playground, run and jump like peers, or catch and throw a ball? 

• Can they walk on all different surfaces without loss of balance?

• Can they ride their bike? 

 

PT can help address all these areas and more!  PT can help develop strength and balance to improve gait, coordination, and other gross motor skills!

• Does your child have difficulty walking? 

• Do they always walk up on their tip toes? 

• Do their feet turn out or turn in? 

• Do they trip and fall frequently? 

• Do they wear out the tips of their shoes?

• Is it challenging for them to walk up or down the stairs?

• Do they need to hold your hand when walking on unlevel surfaces? 

 

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then PT may be helpful!  PT can help address muscle imbalances, balance challenges, and coordination deficits that influence gait and movement.
