At Bodybalance Physiotherapy & Sports Injury Clinic, our Specialist Paediatric Physiotherapists provide a friendly, professional, and interactive physiotherapy service tailored to meet the needs of babies, children, and young people from birth up to the age of 16 years.
Children are not just “mini-adults.” Treating them requires specific knowledge of child development and the ability to interact effectively with children. Our paediatric physiotherapists have in-depth experience with the varied conditions that present exclusively in children, ensuring that each child receives the best possible care.
Our Specialist Paediatric Physiotherapist works closely with children and their parents to tailor treatments that promote optimal growth, development, and recovery from injury. We have particular expertise in the following areas:
If required, our paediatric physiotherapist can offer educational support. This may include assessing a child’s mobility and accessibility at school to support their inclusion and full participation, or providing advice to facilitate their involvement in the PE curriculum.
During the initial appointment, our physiotherapist will conduct a comprehensive assessment, which includes asking detailed questions about the child’s condition and performing a physical examination as appropriate. Following this, the physiotherapist will provide a detailed explanation to the parents, including a discussion of the recommended treatment plan. Our goal is to work cohesively with families to facilitate child-centred goals, aiming to optimise development and maximise each child’s potential.
The assessment may require the child to wear shorts (or a nappy if younger). Sometimes, it may be necessary for the child to have a bare chest to allow for effective viewing of the involved areas. Any child under the age of 18 must have a parent or responsible adult present for the session. You are welcome to have an attendant present during the assessment if you prefer.
Our team consists of highly trained paediatric physiotherapists with extensive experience in treating children.
