Physiotherapy for children
Pediatric physiotherapy supports children who have developmental delays, movement difficulties, or are recovering from injury or illness. Therapy is play-based and tailored to each child's stage and needs, with parents closely involved.

How home physiotherapy helps
Your physiotherapist assesses your child's movement and development, then uses games and activities to build skills. Working at home lets therapy fit into your child's routine and coaches parents to continue the work between visits.
What a home visit looks like
The first visit is a friendly assessment of your child's movement and goals, with you involved throughout. Follow-up visits progress the activities and update the home plan.
Typical approach
Programmes are individualised and progress at the child's pace, with regular review and close coordination with parents and other health professionals.
Activities you might practise at home
- Play-based movement and coordination games.
- Strength and balance activities suited to the child's age.
- Parent-coached routines to reinforce skills.
(Follow your physiotherapist's guidance and coordinate with your child's medical team.)
