in Paediatric Physiotherapy
Children aren't just small adults
Growing bodies move, heal and respond to treatment differently. Paediatric physiotherapy accounts for growth plates, developmental stages and a child's own understanding of pain — so care is both clinically sound and genuinely age-appropriate.
Common concerns we help families manage
Developmental Delays
Support for delayed milestones in rolling, crawling, sitting, standing or walking, with structured programmes to build strength and coordination.
Toe Walking
Assessment and correction of persistent toe walking, addressing calf tightness and gait pattern through targeted exercise.
Flat Feet & Foot Posture
Evaluation of foot alignment and arch development, with guidance on footwear, strengthening and when review is genuinely needed.
Torticollis & Plagiocephaly
Early intervention for neck tightness and positional head flattening in infants, working closely with your paediatrician.
Growing Pains, Osgood Schlatters & Sever's Disease
Management of activity-related leg, knee and heel pain common in growing children, particularly active young athletes.
Bow Legs & Knock Knees
Clinical assessment to distinguish normal developmental alignment from patterns that warrant closer monitoring.

Frequently asked questions
At what age can my child start physiotherapy?+
There's no minimum age. We see patients from early infancy — for conditions such as torticollis or head shape concerns — right through to adolescence for sports injuries and postural issues.
Do I need a doctor's referral?+
No referral is required to book an initial assessment. If your child has an existing diagnosis or is under a paediatrician's care, we're glad to coordinate directly with them.
Will my child find the session stressful?+
Sessions are structured around play and movement rather than clinical procedure, and we pace things to your child's comfort. Parents are always welcome in the room.
How many sessions will my child need?+
This depends entirely on the concern — a sports strain may resolve in a few sessions, while developmental support is often reviewed over a longer period. We'll give you a clear expected timeline after the initial assessment.
Is paediatric physiotherapy covered by insurance?+
Coverage depends on your specific policy. We offer direct billing with select insurance providers — reach out and we'll help confirm your child's eligibility.
