The Sensory Gym

At Sensory Link Pediatric Therapy, the "Sensory Gym" was developed to provide the most current tools and equipment which will expose a growing child to alternate pathways. “A child’s play is his work” — jumping, climbing, and swinging stimulate and encourage a youngster to move in a new directions. The multi-room sensory facility enables the therapists to deliver appropriate treatments that will agree with the personalized development plan for each child.
