Personalized care, restored independence
Our physical and occupational therapists will develop a treatment plan just for you—so you can regain strength, improve your range of motion, and get back to doing the things you love.

The Pediatric Physical Therapy and Occupational Therapy Program at Sports Therapy and Rehabilitation Services (STARS) promotes optimal function and well-being for children from birth through adolescence. By using exercise and therapeutic play, we address movement, strength, balance, coordination and endurance deficits. We work with children and their families to create an individualized therapeutic program built on evidence-based practice.
