Investing in Your Little One’s Foundation
At Pediatric Movements, we believe that early support is the greatest gift you can give your child.
Every wiggle, stretch, and feeding session in infancy builds the foundation for a lifetime of movement, comfort, and growth.
Comprehensive Initial Evaluation:
Infant Feeding and Developmental Physical Therapy Assessment
$400
Duration: Up to 90 Minutes, unhurried assessment tailored to your baby's tolerance.
Our first session together is a deep dive into your baby’s unique physical, neurological, and structural blueprint. We don't just look at what your baby is doing; we look at how they are doing it.
What this comprehensive evaluation entails:
Milestones & Development: A close look at age-appropriate gross motor skills and foundational movement patterns.
Tension Patterns & Structural Alignment: Identifying body tightness, asymmetry, or restrictions (such as torticollis or structural tension) that may be impacting feeding, comfort and movement.
Nervous System & Sensory Regulation: Assessing your baby's ability to self-soothe, and teaching you tailored calming techniques to help regulate a sensitive or overstimulated nervous system.
Comprehensive Feeding Evaluation: A functional assessment of both breastfeeding and bottle-feeding dynamics to optimize efficiency, comfort, and bonding.
Therapeutic Intervention & Comfort Care: Hands-on manual therapy techniques, targeted stretches, and positioning strategies designed to alleviate common infant discomforts like reflux, gassiness, and fussiness.
Oral Motor Skills & Tools: Assessment of oral function with personalized oral motor exercises. We also conduct bottle and pacifier selection trials to find the exact match for your infant’s unique functional anatomy.
Follow Up Sessions:
$200
Duration: 60 Minutes Focused, interactive, and play-based treatment. Healing and development are journeys, not overnight events.
Follow-up sessions are designed to build upon the foundation laid during the initial evaluation. What we focus on during follow-ups:
Assessing Progress: Checking in on how your baby has integrated the previous session's work and reviewing your home routine.
Dynamic Care Adjustments: Modifying stretches, manual therapy, and oral exercises as your baby grows and their needs shift.
Milestone Progression: Proactively guiding your baby into their next developmental stages (rolling, sitting, crawling) with ease and symmetry.
Continued Parent Empowerment: Refining your techniques so you always feel confident supporting your baby at home.
Why This Investment Matters
The infant nervous system is incredibly adaptable. Addressing feeding challenges, body tension, and developmental alignment now prevents compensation patterns later, leading to happier feedings, healthy tummies, better sleep, and more joyful movement.
