What Does a Physical Therapist Treat?
Physical therapists work on how a child moves — rolling, sitting, crawling, walking, running, stairs, balance and coordination — and on the strength, range of motion and motor planning underneath those skills. Much of the work looks like play, because a child practices a movement willingly when it gets them something they want. For adults, outpatient physical therapy covers orthopedic injury and post-surgical rehabilitation, back and neck pain, balance and vestibular difficulty, and movement after a neurological event.
Conditions Physical Therapy Can Help With
Common reasons for a pediatric referral include torticollis and plagiocephaly in infants, gross-motor delay, toe walking, low or high muscle tone, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, hypermobility, and returning to sport after an injury. Adult clinics commonly treat back and neck pain, joint and sports injury, post-operative rehabilitation, and balance or dizziness.
How to Choose a Physical Therapist in Chandler
The right physical therapist is the one who fits your child’s needs, your schedule and your budget. Here is what to weigh:
- Check credentials. Look for a physical therapist with a current Arizona license, and ask about experience specifically — treating children is a different skill from treating adults.
- Match the specialty to the need. Ask how often the therapist treats your child’s particular concern, rather than whether they treat children in general.
- Confirm insurance and cost up front. Check in-network status, copays, visit limits and prior authorization, or ask for a superbill if the clinic is private-pay. Arizona Medicaid covers medically necessary physical therapy for eligible children.
- Consider the setting. Clinic, in-home, school-based and telehealth all suit different children. Ask which the clinic offers.
- Ask what progress will look like. A good therapist can name the goal being worked toward, how it will be measured, and roughly when to expect movement on it.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does insurance cover physical therapy in Arizona?
Many Arizona health plans cover physical therapy when it is medically necessary, and Arizona Medicaid covers it for eligible children. Coverage limits, prior-authorization rules and visit caps vary by plan, so verify benefits before the first appointment.
What if my child is under three?
Arizona’s early intervention program is the Arizona Early Intervention Program (AzEIP), for children birth to age three, and it includes physical therapy. A parent can refer their own child; no doctor’s referral is needed.
Does the school district provide physical therapy?
Public schools provide physical therapy through an IEP for eligible students, where the difficulty affects access to education. That is a different question from private therapy, and many children have both.
