This is just a sample glowing review about Jumping Jax Speech, Occupational and Physical Therapy, whose warm, and inviting office space on Pondfield Road welcomes families with young children. You'll love Amanda, Karinna, and Emily upon meeting them. I know, because my office used to be next door to them, and I would readily turn to them if my kids were in need of such services.
