Our Approach

Our paediatric physiotherapists apply a systematic, child-centered method, ensuring every session is focused on outcomes meaningful to both children and parents. Key components include:

Comprehensive Initial Assessment

In the first session, a detailed assessment is conducted to understand the child's unique needs and formulate a tailored strategy.

Collaborative Treatment Planning

Together with families, we develop a structured plan that includes hands-on therapy, strategies for home, and, where appropriate, group classes.

Home-Based Strategies

These exercises help families integrate the benefits of physiotherapy into daily routines.

Hydrotherapy Sessions

One-on-one or small group sessions provide additional support through water-based exercises.

Social Group Classes

Encouraging peer interaction, these classes offer cost-effective options and foster social engagement for both children and parents.

Therapy Framework

Treatment Techniques

The techniques used in paediatric physiotherapy are chosen to support the child’s goals, current abilities, and developmental needs, and include:

Motor Control & Sensory Integration

Targeting movement precision and sensory processing.

Reflex Integration

Enhancing movement coordination through exercises that integrate reflexes.

Bracing & Splinting

Supporting joint stability and functional movement.

Hydrotherapy and Group Exercises

Providing physical and social benefits through structured, water-based exercises.

Short term and long-term goals are formed while keeping the expectations and concerns of the parents along with the current functional status of the child.

We focus on bringing the best out of every child through play and help achieve their goals by making them functionally as independent as possible.
