Paediatric Physiotherapy Service
Our Approach
- We use evidence-based practices in line with NICE guidelines. Our focus is on promoting participation and activity by reviewing and monitoring joint ranges, muscle length, strength, and overall function.
- We adopt a neurodevelopmental approach, using a mix of hands-on techniques and methods developed through years of experience.
- Postural management is very important. Our physiotherapists collaborate with school staff and parents to provide advice on good positioning throughout the day and night.
- We work as part of a multidisciplinary team, collaborating with other therapists, medical professionals, and school staff.
