Unlock your child’s potential

Welcome to Physiokids Pediatric Therapy!

We are a pediatric physical therapy practice in Fort Worth, Texas. Physiokids is committed to unlocking the functional abilities of all children that come through our doors. Through the use of evidence-based practices we are devoted to providing an effective and safe therapy environment for all children.


Physiokids is devoted to discovering ways to help your child succeed. Every child is unique and we think that should be embraced and celebrated. We will take the time to learn about your child’s personality, motivations and tailor our approach to meet their needs. We will work together with you to create a plan of action and encourage all families to take an active role in the therapy process to encourage long term success for each child.

We are a cash-pay practice and so our services are dictated by your child’s needs and coordinated between our therapists, the parent, and any other health care providers — not insurance. We want to focus on your child and provide more personalized care. We are happy to provide a Superbill for insurance reimbursement. Please reach out if you have any questions or if you would like to work out a payment plan. We are happy to make things work for you and your family.

About

  • Founder, Physiokids

    Dr. Emily Dalton, PT, DPT earned her Doctorate of Physical Therapy from Texas Tech Health Sciences Center in 2017 and has been practicing for almost 6 years. She is a proud TCU alumni and happy to call Fort Worth home. She grew up in Albuquerque, NM but has fallen in love with Fort Worth and everything it has to offer. She and her husband welcomed a daughter this July which keeps them busy along with their two crazy dogs. She has worked in a variety of settings including outpatient pediatric PT, outpatient aquatic and orthopedic physical therapy, and home health pediatric PT. These different experiences have led her to approach each session with creativity, empathy, and passion for helping children in every stage of development.

    As a new mom, she has a new appreciation of what it takes to protect your child and make sure they are set up for success. She is dedicated to helping her patients achieve their goals and optimize their movement patterns. She specializes in a wide range of diagnoses including torticollis, gross motor delays, neurological conditions and orthopedic injuries. She believes that every child is unique and every meeting should be tailored to each patient’s specific needs. She is trained in Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) Introductory A and is continuing with further levels. Dynamic Movement Intervention (DMI) combines cutting-edge research and methodologies to develop motor milestones. This approach focuses on provoking repetitive specific motor responses from a child, drawing on brain neuroplasticity to facilitate new neural pathways and connections. She has seen it have life-changing results for patients and families.
