Pediatric PhysioKey

Physiokey is a supportive and effective treatment option for all ages.

Working with infants means they might be treated while they eat or while they work on moving or even while they nap. In this age group we're addressing things like

  • nursing and bonding

  • birth trauma/ injury

  • breath & digestive concerns like constipation and reflux

  • skin, muscle, and joint health (including torticollis, general movement/ strength)

Toddlers and elementary aged children have the option to sit or move during treatment while we work to support concerns including

  • potty training/ bed wetting/ constipation nervous system dysregulation which can present as attention issues,

  • anxiety, difficulty breathing and feeling calm/ content, sleep disruption/ nightmares and

  • more muscle and joint health and development pain from injury/ surgery/ growing

  • recovery from illness

Older children and teens usually sit/ stand/ perform specific movements during treatment which can target any of the relevant above plus:

  • athletic performance & hormone shifts

Physiokey treatments require skin contact but pediatric clients are able to remain clothed and comfortable at all times by coming prepared with options like shorts and tank tops. For many of the above mentioned issues 2 main areas to be addressed will be the spine and abdomen. The impulse setting is kept low and almost imperceptible to ensure comfort

Aftermath of a family session of treatments- Toys on the massage table and couch, Little Mermaid on the TV, and the PhysioKey on the heated massage table. Parents are welcome to bring all of their littles while their sibling is being treated. Toy sand books are provided to help keep the children in one place and to help ease any fears they may have. Movies and cartoons on Disney+ can be picked by the child when they arrive for their therapy session.
