What is Paediatric Physiotherapy?
As Physiotherapists we are experts at the human body. We look at how to optimise how our kids move and participate considering how their condition will progress across the lifespan. We are experts at muscular physiology postural control, neurological function and movement analysis. We are more than just targeted strength or injury rehabilitation.
When working in the neurological population, we are aware of how to control and manage neurological conditions such as spasticity, dystonia and hypotonia and more to ensure that the participant still has the maximum level of function available.
We are highly skills in teaching healthy movement patterns that will survive as a child grows and develops. This is fundamental to protecting a child from contracture, hospital admissions and chronic pain later on in life.
We are often the first therapist on the scene as we are experts in gross motor skills which are fundamental skills required from birth.
