Clinic Based Therapy Services Serving Boise, Meridian, & Nampa, Idaho

What is the Difference Between the Therapy Services and How Do They Work Together?

Our outpatient therapy services at SkyBreak Therapy include Physical Therapy, Occupational Therapy and Speech Therapy. 


As a whole we are helping children thrive physically, functionally, and socially across all settings, including home, school and within the community. Here are some main focus areas and how they also overlap. 


Physical Therapy (PT)

Focus: Gross motor skills, strength, coordination, balance, and mobility
What PT Does:

  • Helps children walk, run, jump, and navigate playgrounds safely
  • Improves posture, balance, and functional movement
  • Supports participation in daily activities, sports, and recreation


Occupational Therapy (OT)

Focus: Fine motor skills, sensory processing, self-care, and functional independence
What OT Does:

  • Supports feeding, dressing, and grooming skills
  • Helps with handwriting, play skills, and school participation
  • Addresses sensory processing and regulation challenges


Speech Therapy (ST)

Focus: Communication, language, and oral-motor skills
What ST Does:

  • Improves speech clarity, language understanding, and social communication
  • Supports feeding and swallowing skills when needed
  • Helps children express themselves and connect with others


How the Therapies Work Together


While each therapy has a unique focus, our therapists collaborate to maximize progress:

  • PT + OT: Work together when balance, coordination, or gross motor skills affect daily function
  • OT + ST: Address oral-motor or sensory needs that impact feeding, communication, or self-care
  • PT + OT + ST: Ensure skills learned in therapy transfer to home, school, and community

Our multidisciplinary approach ensures every child receives personalized, holistic support—helping them succeed in all areas of life.
