Frequntly Asked Questions
Getting started is simple. Just give us a call to share your concerns—we’re here to listen and guide you through the next steps. Once we’ve spoken, we’ll verify your insurance benefits and schedule a comprehensive evaluation with one of our experienced therapists. During the evaluation, we’ll assess your child’s strengths and areas where they may need extra support, then create a personalized plan just for them. If therapy is recommended, we’ll begin one-on-one sessions to help your child build skills, confidence, and independence.

We treat a wide range of movement and developmental challenges in children and teens. Common concerns include delayed milestones like rolling, crawling, standing, or walking; frequent tripping or poor coordination; and muscle weakness or low tone. We also support children with torticollis (tight neck muscles or head tilting), posture or balance issues, and difficulty with activities like stairs, jumping, or running. If your child is recovering from an injury or surgery, or has a diagnosed condition such as cerebral palsy that affects movement, our physical therapists can help. We’re here to support kids in building strength, confidence, and independence through movement.
At Infinity and Beyond, we serve children and teens from birth to 18 years of age with pediatric Occupational Therapy and Physical Therapy services.
Early intervention means identifying and addressing developmental delays or challenges as early as possible. Often during infancy or toddlerhood. The earlier we can support a child’s motor, sensory, or communication needs, the better their chances of building strong foundational skills for future growth. In physical therapy, early intervention can help babies and toddlers meet important milestones like sitting, crawling, and walking, and can prevent small delays from becoming bigger challenges down the road. Our team works closely with families to create playful, effective therapy plans that support your child’s development from the very beginning.
The first session is typically an evaluation. An evaluation may take 60 to 90 minutes.
After that, each therapy session is 60 minutes. Additionally, seeing your child once or twice a week for therapy appointments is common.
We also provide elements to incorporate at home.
The state of Illinois covers all early intervention evaluations.
Additionally, our services are “in-network” for Blue Cross Blue Shield PPOs. Therefore, coverage with other carriers may vary.
Before you start treatment, we will verify the extent of your benefits. Then, during treatment, we will bill your insurance company for you. You will be responsible for any copays and the uncovered balance.
All Kids Assist (formerly Kid Care) is Illinois’ federally funded insurance (Medicaid) for children. We currently do not take Medicaid clients.
We offer a self-pay (private pay) option, too. Please call if you have any questions.
