Where can I get Physical Therapy for a skinned knee?

Today Isabelle and I went on a walk to distribute the rest of the flyers for the event we are having in the community next weekend. Isabelle was helping when she accidentally fell down and scratched both of her knees. I have never seen a bigger drama queen that Isabelle. All of this happened around 9:30 this morning, it is now 2:40 and she still refuses to walk on it.. Pathetic! I have never met a child that did not like Band-Aids until Isabelle, I have to practically hold her down to get her to put one on.

When she took her nap, she refused a blankie because it would hurt her knee. She insisted on sleeping in the "Mommy Daddy bed", so I went along with that one because it was a battle that I was not willing to fight this morning. She doesn't even want Boo-Boo Tiger, this is shocking because we use this all of the time even for pretend Boo-Boo's.

When she woke up from her nap the first thing she said is, "I'm ok Mommy". As if I was worried, it is a minor flesh wound.. LOL
I- "Wanna play with toys Mommy"
M-" Go get them, they are in your toy box"
I- "Boo-Boo Mommy"- with a look on her face like, duh Mom I cannot get out of bed I have broken both of my legs!!!

If anyone knows how long it takes to recover fully from this kind of injury please let me know. Also if you have any physical rehabilitation clinics that you can recommend that would be great, this cannot be your average skinned knee (at least not according to Isabelle).

(These videos are posted later on in the day when Isabelle started to take her first steps. It is a miracle she can walk!! Sorry, you can hear me cracking up in the background... I tried to contain myself)
