Welcome to our flagship facility in Cheshire, Connecticut — the heart of our operations and the foundation of our mission to help children thrive through expert pediatric therapy services. As the central hub of our multi-location network, our Cheshire center has proudly served families in the local area and throughout New Haven County for more than 10 years.

Cheshire’s Most Comprehensive Pediatric Therapy Center

Our two-level, state-of-the-art facility provides a full spectrum of pediatric therapies. These include physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech therapy, and feeding therapy. Families from Cheshire, Meriden, Wallingford, Hamden, and surrounding areas rely on our experienced team to deliver compassionate, evidence-based therapy tailored to each child’s unique needs.

Inside Our Cheshire Facility

On the lower level, our physical therapy gym features a wide selection of pediatric and adolescent cardio equipment, a large open treatment area, and an engaging rock-climbing wall. This level also includes two private treatment rooms for focused, personalized care.

Upstairs, the second level houses our occupational and speech therapy departments as well as our dedicated feeding therapy space. Two fully equipped sensory rooms offer therapy swings, a ball pit, a trampoline, and a variety of sensory and fine motor materials to support sensory integration. This floor also features two smaller fine motor rooms. The feeding therapy suite includes a fully functioning kitchen area, adaptive seating, and a range of oral motor tools. The speech therapy department comprises five private treatment rooms furnished with diagnostic and therapeutic tools to support communication goals.

Meeting the Needs of Families

Many families in the Cheshire area experience challenges accessing high-quality, coordinated pediatric therapy services close to home. The need for specialized care — particularly for developmental delays, sensory processing issues, and communication disorders — often means families are forced to travel or juggle multiple appointments at different locations.

Our Cheshire facility addresses this problem with a single, centralized location that combines multiple specialties in one coordinated setting. This improves continuity of care, streamlines scheduling, and supports more efficient communication among providers and families.

What Sets Our Facility Apart?

We’ve been a trusted part of the Cheshire community for over a decade. Every child who walks through our doors receives a custom therapy plan tailored to their goals. Our interdisciplinary team — from physical therapists to speech-language pathologists — works closely together to ensure a holistic and collaborative approach to care. Families are considered vital members of the therapy team, and we keep parents informed and involved throughout every step of the process.

What Clients Are Saying

A five star rating would not be enough for Cheshire Fitness Zone! From the first time I called to schedule my son’s consult to now one year later, we are consistently greeted by the most caring and loving staff. My son goes to Cheshire Fitness Zone for oral motor/speech therapy and sees Miss Kim. When I say she is the best, she truly is! From day one she has put her heart and soul into my child’s therapy. The strides my son has made in one year is amazing. Not only is Kim the nicest person ever, she is extremely knowledgeable in her field and is constantly thinking of new ways to improve my son’s speech.

We can’t thank you enough. I don’t think we would be where we are if it wasn’t for your care, guidance, and support for Cole and us.
Joyce Ann Piepenbring
Everyone at Cheshire Fitness is always so friendly and welcoming. They provide a wonderful atmosphere for the children and are so supportive. The best gift anyone can give a parent is caring for his or her kid and helping his or her kid to live to their greatest potential and that is exactly what the therapists at Cheshire Fitness Zone do. They truly care and we will be forever grateful for the tools they have provided our child.

From the moment you check in at the front desk to your discussion with your therapist at the end of the session, you feel at home, respected, and in great hands. The improvements you will see in your child will say it all.

Cheshire Fitness Zone therapists offer hope, encouragement, and creativity. They deliver on persistence, personal gains, and individual growth because they genuinely care. In spite of working on the steps to tie his shoes for over six months at a different facility, at Cheshire Fitness Zone Erin never lost hope or let him quit. Although he had no idea each week she worked on skills that when put together would tie a shoe. She approached the idea of tying many times only to be met with complete resistance and totally shutting down. Then one day he came to me after his session and said, ‘Hey mom, guess what? I can tie my shoes.’ When I saw the pride in his eyes and the encouragement on Erin’s face I knew he had done it. It was one of the happiest moments of his childhood. What a gift…self-pride and independence.

We have been coming to Cheshire Fitness Zone for more than two years. The therapists are friendly, compassionate, and professional. Not only do they do a fabulous job with the therapy, but they also consider the individual behavioral needs for our son. They are caring while pushing him to achieve goals that at times he might feel he can do and he does. Thank you to Craig and the staff for all that you do!

Thank you for teaching me everything I know about OT and sensory diets. You go above and beyond for our students and we really appreciate all that you have given us.

“The DMI intensive week was a game changer for my kiddo. I would 100% participate in it again as it gave my girlie a big jumpstart that she needed to engage her core and legs. The difference from Monday to Friday – I mean wow. She went from not being able to lift herself up to being able to sit independently for 2.5 minutes and use her core to stand up straight. She gets stronger everyday as we continue our “homework” and countdown the days until we get to do it again!”
