Paediatric Physiotherapy

Paediatric physiotherapy focuses on assessing, treating, and supporting children with movement, developmental, and physical challenges from infancy through adolescence. The goal is to help children achieve age-appropriate motor skills, improve strength and coordination, and support healthy growth.

What It Covers

Paediatric physiotherapy addresses conditions such as:

• Developmental delays
• Flat feet / toe walking
• Postural issues
• Coordination or balance difficulties
• Cerebral palsy
• Brachial plexus injury
• Genetic or congenital disorders
• Autism-related motor challenges
• Pediatric orthopedic issues (knock knees, bow legs, clubfoot)

How We Treat

Treatment is gentle, engaging, and tailored to each child’s developmental stage.

1. Developmental Assessment

• Gross motor skill evaluation (rolling, crawling, walking, running)
• Posture and alignment check
• Muscle tone, balance, and coordination analysis
• Identification of developmental gaps
• This helps create a personalized treatment plan.

2. Growth-Appropriate Therapy

• Motor skill training
• Balance and gait correction
• Strengthening exercises through play
• Sensory-motor integration activities
• Functional movement training
• Therapy is conducted in a child-friendly, motivating way.

3. Corrective Techniques

Used for issues like flat feet, toe walking, posture abnormalities, and muscle tightness:

• Manual therapy
• Stretching and mobilizations
• Orthotic guidance (if needed)
• Foot strengthening and gait re-education

4. Therapy Through Play

Activities are designed to make therapy enjoyable:

• Obstacle courses
• Soft-play exercises
• Ball games
• Coordination drills
• Functional tasks
• Children learn faster when they’re engaged and having fun.

5. Parent & Caregiver Education

We guide families on:

• Home exercises
• Positioning and play strategies
• Milestone expectations
• Daily routine modifications
• Parent participation ensures faster progress.
