Physical Therapy
At Building Bridges Through Communication, our dedicated team of physical therapists works collaboratively with patients and their families to develop tailored care plans designed to address specific needs and enhance overall well-being. We focus on improving gross motor skills, muscle tone, endurance, joint range of motion, and ultimately, the quality of life for individuals with neuromuscular disorders and developmental disabilities.
