You may consider consulting a Paediatric Physiotherapist in Lavington if your child is experiencing delays in reaching developmental milestones, has difficulty with movement, coordination, or balance, or if they have a specific condition or injury affecting their physical abilities.
Paediatric Physiotherapy uses a variety of techniques tailored to each child’s needs. These may include therapeutic exercises, play-based activities, manual therapy, motor control training, aquatic therapy, assistive devices, and parent education to support home-based interventions.
The duration of a Paediatric Physiotherapy session can vary depending on the child’s age, condition, and specific goals. Typically, sessions may range from 30 minutes to an hour. The frequency and duration of treatment will be determined based on the individual needs and progress.
Signs that may indicate your child could benefit from paediatric physiotherapy include difficulty with sitting, crawling, walking, or running compared to peers, poor balance or coordination, frequent falls, persistent pain or discomfort during movement, and delays in reaching motor milestones.
If your child is already receiving therapy or treatment for their condition, it may still be beneficial to consult a Lavington paediatric physiotherapist. They can assess your child’s physical abilities, provide specialised interventions, and work collaboratively with other healthcare professionals to optimise their overall progress and well-being.
