Clinical Space

Our clinic is a new, state of the art space designed to invite children, young adults and families in to explore, move and learn new movement possibilities.

Space for Everyone

  • Small play spaces for infants and toddlers that feel safe and ‘homey’ for little hands and feet.
  • Wide-open adventure spaces that create opportunities for running, climbing, riding and exploring a variety of movement experiences.
  • In-between sized real and virtual spaces that offer flexibility for any size, movement ability or age of client.

Technology and Equipment

To support therapy services within our clinical spaces, our team uses a variety of high- and low-tech equipment.

Biofeedback for Pelvic Floor Rehabilitation

Signals from clients' muscles help therapists understand when the muscles are squeezing or relaxing.

Gait Rite

Helps therapists understand how clients walk and if current therapy exercises are helping them walk better.

Infinadeck Omnidirectional Treadmill

Allows full-body 360-degree directional movement while in real or virtual worlds adding motion to therapy.

Play Lab

Focuses on innovative play-based interventions and technologies to improve child's mobility, function and participation in daily life.

Total Gym

A full fitness machine for strength and flexibility training with a variety of workouts that go beyond physical therapy to endurance.

Virtual Reality Lab

Turns the proven therapy technique of HABIT into therapeutic video games for children to improve upper-extremity function.

Zero-G Gait and Balance System

This overhead system provides support and protects clients from falls while allowing them to move freely along an 80-foot track.
