Physiotherapy assists your child with the development, rehabilitation and improvement of movement skills and performance. Physiotherapy can help with a range of problems with children from babies through to teen-agers. If you feel your child is suffering pain or restriction in movement, have them assessed by a qualified physiotherapist who can not only help to diagnose any potential physical problems, but formalise a process for getting them to perform and grow at their best, without pain.
The physiotherapist at Essential Care Physiotherapy may work on a range of areas including assisting with gross motor skills such as sitting, standing and walking, as well as improving flexibility, strength and endurance. If your child is starting school or going back to school, advice on backpack fitting can make a huge difference to their comfort and avoiding potential back and neck problems. As children grow, they often feel pain in their bones and feet. This is common amongst most children. Healthy feet and bones in growing children is essential. Your physiotherapist can conduct an assessment to help your child manage their growing pains.
