Some kids get therapy at school and some kids go to a special clinic to see their therapists.
Therapists are special teachers who are trained to work with people on learning better or easier ways to do things. Physical Therapy Physical therapists help children learn better ways to move and balance. They may help children with CP learn to walk, use their wheelchair, stand by themselves, or go up and down stairs safely. Kids may also work on fun skills in physical therapy like running, kicking and throwing a ball, or learning to ride a bike. Speech and Language Therapy Speech therapists work with children on communication skills.
