Occupational, Physical, & Speech Therapy

Momentum’s individual pediatric therapy services are available in-person at our center in Torrance, and remotely via telehealth.

Occupational Therapy

Many people are surprised to hear that children participate in occupational therapy because we usually associate the word “occupation” with jobs. However, there is a broader view of “occupations” for children, including playing, learning, and socializing with friends. Momentum helps children develop these necessary skills to transition to an independent and rewarding life.

Our occupational therapists provide evaluation, intervention, and consultation in the following areas:

  • Feeding & Oral Motor Skills
  • Play & Socialization
  • Sensory Processing & Motor Planning
  • Self-Regulation
  • Organizing & Planning Motor Skills
  • Visual-Motor Skills
  • Fine Motor & Handwriting Skills
  • Self-Help Skills
  • Adaptive Equipment Modifications
  • Delays in Development
  • Environmental Adaptations for Home and School Settings

Physical Therapy

Physical Therapy

Our physical therapists specializing in pediatrics assist children in developing and enhancing mobility, so they may safely participate in activities at home, in the community, in the classroom, and on the playground. Our physical therapists focus on children’s ability to participate in essential movement activities such as crawling, walking, running, playing games, and participating in sports. For children who rely on mobility aids such as wheelchairs, orthotics, and other supports, our therapists show them how to navigate safely in various environments.
