What is paediatric physiotherapy?
Paediatric physiotherapy addresses a wide range of issues affecting children’s growth and development. It is designed to assess and treat problems with movement, posture, and physical function in children, from infants to adolescents. Paediatric physiotherapists work with children of all ages to develop strategies that improve their mobility, strength, coordination, and overall physical health.In addition to injury rehabilitation, paediatric physiotherapists focus on promoting healthy development and preventing physical issues later in life.
