I am passionate about early intervention, and helping families achieve their goals for their babies. As a mom, and a highly specialized Doctor of pediatric physical therapy and oral motor specialist that has served hundreds of families over 14 years, I understand the difficulties that may arise when raising a child.
Over the years, I have developed highly specialized techniques, and know what works to get your baby feel better quickly. Whether they are feeding difficulties, developmental concerns or just finding new ways to play with your baby, I can help your baby feed well, move well and develop on track.
My additional trainings as a lactation, tongue-tie and lip-tie informed physical therapist will help your baby thrive during times of feeding difficulties whether breastfeeding or bottle-feeding.
Meet Dr. Nalan Gursoy, PT, DPT
Founder and Owner of Pediatric Movements LLC
“After our first appointment, we quickly realized the feeding issues were tied to my baby’s tension in her neck, and her head turn preference went away by the time Dr. Nalan visited a week later. She taught us everything we needed to do with our baby, and we saw results so fast, we could not believe our eyes! We had tried CST and Chiro before, and after many sessions with them we saw no improvements in our baby. Dr. Nalan is amazing at what she does, and she truly loves your baby! ”
