Who this care is for

Who tends to come
A parent or caregiver decision
What they want back
Development, mobility and participation
  • You have concerns about development

    Movement milestones, posture or coordination.

  • Your child has been referred

    Following a diagnosis, birth event or specialist appointment.

  • Your child wants to keep up

    Taking part at school and in play alongside other children.

Not sure this is the right area? Start with the problem you are experiencing. The assessment identifies the problem and routes you to the right care inside the practice.

What this care involves

Paediatric physiotherapy is centred on what a child is trying to do — roll, sit, walk, keep up in the playground — and on giving the family something workable to do between appointments. Sessions are built around play rather than around exercises.

How care works

  1. Step 1: Assessment

    History, movement and function, before any treatment plan.

  2. Step 2: Plan

    Findings explained, and goals agreed with you.

  3. Step 3: Rehabilitation

    Treatment and progressive rehabilitation together.

  4. Step 4: Review

    Progress checked and the plan adjusted as things change.

Common questions

Do parents stay in the session?

Yes for younger children — carers learn what to continue at home between visits.

Is toe walking always a problem?

Persistent or one-sided toe walking warrants assessment; many toddlers grow out of habitual toe walking.

Do you work with schools?

With consent, advice can be shared so positioning and activity match home goals.

How do I book an appointment?

Message the practice on WhatsApp with a short description of your problem. The coordinator will reply during clinic hours to arrange a time.

Can I choose which physiotherapist I see?

Booking is with the practice rather than an individual. After you describe the problem, the practice assigns the physiotherapist whose clinical focus fits it. You can read about the team on the physiotherapists page.
