Practice Information

Lowcountry Therapy Center is a brand new pediatric therapy center offering speech therapy, feeding therapy, occupational therapy and physical therapy. Our facility is complete with sensory integration gyms, including climbing walls, zip-line and tumble pits, and multiple therapeutic room swings. We have specially trained speech and occupational therapists heading our comprehensive feeding program that addresses everything from picky eaters to trouble swallowing. Parent and family participation is a big part of what we do here. Parents are always invited and encouraged to attend all sessions and our therapy rooms have one-way viewing systems to ensure skills introduced in therapy are observed by parents and carried over at home. Lowcountry Therapy Center is proud to offer a number of groups and camps, including our "Little Peanuts" group - focusing on social speech and language skills expected in preschool and Kindergarten - that begins on September 2. We are conveniently located in the heart of Bluffton. We offer free screenings for parents who are unsure about whether or not their child could benefit therapeutic intervention. Lowcountry Therapy Center's therapists embrace the fact that children learn best through play. We make therapy FUN.
