Pediatric Physical & Occupational Therapy Celebrates Grand Opening of Larger Facility in Nanuet

Published

on

NANUET, NY – Pediatric Physical and Occupational Therapy of Hudson Valley, PLLC recently moved from New City to 160 East Route 59 in Nanuet and celebrated with a ribbon cutting on November 8th . The new facility is significantly larger to help more children, provide more operating hours, and it has a state-of-the-art therapy gym with sensory specialty equipment, a rock wall, zip line, trampoline, and spider cage.

In addition to staff and friends, founder Linda Fuller welcomed Rockland County Executive Ed Day, Clarkstown Town Supervisor George Hoehmann, Clarkstown Councilman Don Franchino, Pascale Jean-Gilles, Outreach Director for NYS Senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick, Nanuet Chamber President Jerry Tuchband as well as VP Risa Hoag and Treasurer George Mollo. After the cutting of the ribbon, Fuller gave a tour of the new facility complete with two private fine motor rooms, large center gym area, separate zone for infants and toddlers, and space for parent education workshops.

Pediatric physical therapy helps children develop or regain the skills they need to move their bodies in order to meet everyday challenges. This can include helping babies to crawl in order to retrieve their favorite toy that’s not in arm’s reach or retraining a child to negotiate stairs following a fractured femur from a fall. Pediatric occupational therapy helps children independently perform activities of daily living. Through the use of a variety of treatment approaches, OT goals include improving a child’s fine motor coordination, upper body strength and endurance, visual motor/visual perceptual skills, body and spatial awareness, motor planning, cognitive-adaptive skills and self-care abilities.

Pediatric Physical and Occupational Therapy of Hudson Valley was founded in 2005 to focus on helping children achieve their personal best through leading-edge therapeutic techniques and dedicated, one-on-one treatment sessions. Over the years, Fuller has incorporated innovative treatments like Intensive Physical Therapy, Spider Therapy, TheraTogs, and Whole-Body Vibration Therapy into her practice. In 2010, Fuller added occupational therapy to her practice
in order to provide a comprehensive therapeutic program to her clients under one roof. More information can be found at www.ptotkids.com

Expert Tips to Refresh Your Garden for the Rest of Summer

Published

on

After weeks of summer heat and frequent rain, many gardens across Rockland County, Bergen County and the Hudson Valley are beginning to show signs of stress. Fortunately, a few simple maintenance steps can help restore color and keep landscapes looking their best through late summer and into fall.

The gardening experts at Down to Earth Living Garden Center in Pomona recommend removing spent flowers to encourage new blooms, feeding flowering plants with a bloom booster fertilizer, and pruning spring-flowering shrubs that have already finished blooming.

For an instant burst of color, consider adding late-season favorites like Black-Eyed Susans, zinnias, hydrangeas and fresh hanging baskets. Gardeners are also encouraged to plant milkweed, an essential plant for monarch butterflies, and provide a shallow water source for birds, butterflies and bees during hot weather.

Containers and hanging baskets should be checked frequently, as they often require extra watering during periods of intense heat. If plants have reached the end of their flowering season, replacing them with fresh blooms can quickly brighten outdoor spaces.

With summer sales underway, it’s also a great time to update patios and backyards with discounted outdoor furniture, umbrellas, décor and statuary.

Down to Earth Living Garden Center also offers personalized gardening advice. Customers are encouraged to bring photos or inspiration for their outdoor spaces, and the center’s team can help select the right plants, containers and décor. The garden center’s expanded indoor plant showroom is open for the season, and free repotting is available with the purchase of any plant or pot.

Located at 1040 Route 45 in Pomona, N.Y. For more information, call 845-354-8500 or visit www.dteliving.com.
