Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation

Treatments We Offer

Because children are growing and changing from infancy through adolescence, their rehabilitation often requires the coordination of many different types of services delivered over many years. At NewYork-Presbyterian, we continually tailor our treatments based on your child's anticipated growth, and offer a variety of physical medicine and rehabilitation treatment approaches, including:

• Physical therapy
• Occupational therapy
• Speech therapy
• Feeding evaluation and therapy
• Botulinum toxin (Botox®) to minimize drooling
• Spasticity treatment with Botox and phenol injections and intrathecal baclofen pumps
• Dystonia treatment
• Relief of chronic pain
• Evaluation and fitting for wheelchairs and other adaptive equipment
• Respiratory therapy for neuromuscular disorders
