Services

Physical Therapy (PT)

Physical Therapists help improve balance, coordination, mobility, range of motion, strength, and endurance. Children may require physical therapy if gross motor milestones (i.e., rolling, sitting, crawling, walking, jumping) are not met as expected or if they are having difficulty physically keeping up with same-aged peers. Physical therapy can help give little ones the boost they may need to play, learn, and explore.

PT Services through BabyNet

"BabyNet is South Carolina’s interagency early intervention system for infants and toddlers under three years of age with developmental delays, or who have conditions associated with developmental delays." Children may be eligible for services at no charge to the family. New Moon Therapy Services LLC is a proud BabyNet provider. Please feel free to reach out with any questions about the BabyNet system.

Natural Environment-based PT

Children who may not qualify for BabyNet or who have aged out of the BabyNet system may still be eligible for natural environment-based physical therapy services, depending on the insurance company. Providing therapy in the natural environment (i.e., home, daycare, playground) can be beneficial in order to address specific challenges encountered in everyday life.
