Children's Physiotherapy

Children have different Physiotherapy needs compared to adults.

Milestone delay, concerns about head shape or neck turning preference? Leg pain, hypermobility or altered walking patterns? These are just some of the problems children’s physio can help with.

A children’s Physiotherapist has the knowledge and skills to support your childs development through age appropriate activities and play.  Their experience means they have excellent communication skills and specialist knowledge of child development and growth, as well as what problems and conditions are relevant to specific age groups.  It is also important to see someone who has a good understanding of local services and education for different age groups.
