Pediatric Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy for babies, children, and teenagers

Do children need physiotherapy?

There is no doubting it: babies and children are unquestionably different from adults. From their mannerisms and their way of communicating, all the way down to their anatomy, the differences are undeniable. Pediatric physiotherapy is designed to reflect these differences and address the unique needs of children.

Pediatric physiotherapy is tailored care for children ages 0 to 18. This may include support for conditions such as cerebral palsy, spina bifida, and Down syndrome, as well as sprains, strains, aches, or injuries.

What is pediatric physiotherapy for?

Physiotherapists trained in pediatric care work with babies, toddlers, and children for a variety of needs. This may include support to achieve motor milestones, manage conditions such as torticollis, or assist young athletes recovering from sports-related injuries. Pediatric physiotherapy is focused on safe and supportive recovery.
