All Services
KORT Kids-Middletown offers high quality pediatric occupational, physical and speech therapy services provided by well-trained therapists. As part of this mission, we offer resources, education, support and encouragement to parents and families. Our state-of-the-art facility features a large selection of therapeutic equipment to help each child meet their goals.
Our therapists specialize in evaluating and treating:
- Sensory processing disorders
- Sensory-based feeding
- Speech and language disorders
- Gross and fine motor delays
- Motor planning problems
- Coordination and balance problems
- Neurological disorders like cerebral palsy
- Chromosomal disorders such as Down syndrome
Each child requires a full evaluation in order to initiate therapy services. Our objective is to develop a child-centered, family-focused treatment plan. We conduct therapy sessions in a modern environment using specialized equipment. Our therapists use play-based activities to create a 'just right' challenge for each child.
