Comprehensive Pediatric Feeding Therapy Near Vero Beach

Progressive Pediatric Therapy's feeding therapy program addresses the unique feeding challenges of children from Vero Beach and Indian River County. Our specialized feeding therapists and nutritional specialists partner with families from Pointe West, Vero Lago, and the Central Beach neighborhoods to help children overcome oral motor dysfunction, sensory food aversions, picky eating, feeding tube transitions, and mealtime behavioral challenges. We help children develop positive relationships with food so family meals, school lunches at Vero Beach High School, and outings to the McKee Botanical Garden cafe are enjoyable rather than stressful.

Located at 266 NW Peacock Blvd #204 in Port St. Lucie, our clinic offers specialized feeding therapy addressing oral motor function, sensory feeding challenges, food selectivity, and mealtime routines. We use evidence-based interventions including oral motor exercises, sensory-based feeding approaches, and behavioral feeding strategies to help Vero Beach children develop healthy eating patterns at home, at school, and in the community.
