What is Pediatric Physical Therapy?

Pediatric physical therapy is a specialized branch of physical therapy focused on the unique needs of children. The primary goal is to help pediatric patients improve their physical function and achieve optimal growth and development.

Early Intervention

Research has shown that the sooner concerns are addressed, the better the outcomes for the child. By utilizing specific evidence-based techniques, we can create and change brain connections, resulting in the achievement of specific developmental milestones.

Hello! I'm Valentina Bolanos, Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) specializing in Pediatrics.

 

With over 16 years of experience in hospitals, outpatient care, private practice, and running my own pediatric home health practice, I've devoted myself to supporting babies and their families through their developmental journey.

​

My expertise covers a range of specialized areas including infant oral motor rehabilitation, neuromuscular rehabilitation, and evaluating several types of pediatric conditions. I also lead various complex specialty clinics with focused initiatives for Wheelchair & DME, Spasticity, Spina Bifida, and developmental treatments. I teach prenatal courses and educate the community on the benefits of pediatric physical therapy and early intervention. I've completed extensive certifications and continuously update my knowledge with the latest techniques and interventions. ​ Beyond technical skills, I prioritize providing mindful care tailored to the unique needs of each baby and their families during these crucial early stages. I strive to provide a positive experience by listening with an open heart and treating the mind and body as a whole. ​ My goal is to share my expertise with parents and caregivers, guiding them toward achieving their specific goals by identifying the source and providing practical treatment interventions that align with their family dynamics. I have a deep passion for working with children, and my ultimate mission is to empower caregivers by giving them the tools needed to effectively support their children in reaching their fullest potential. I believe all children have the capacity to learn even the most difficult skills when given a safe, caring, gentle, and kind space to do so.
