PAEDIATRIC PHYSIOTHERAPY
CHILDREN CAN SUFFER FROM MUSCULOSKELETAL ISSUES JUST LIKE ADULTS, BUT THE CAUSES ARE OFTEN VERY DIFFERENT. AT OUR CLINIC, WE RECOGNISE THAT CHILDREN ARE NOT SIMPLY SMALL ADULTS FROM A MUSCULOSKELETAL PERSPECTIVE.
JOINT ACHES AND PAINS IN CHILDREN ARE FREQUENTLY RELATED TO GROWTH AND ACTIVITY LEVELS. MANY ISSUES THAT CAUSE PAIN OR LIMIT ACTIVITY CAN BE TREATED EFFECTIVELY AND QUICKLY WITH SPECIALISED PHYSIOTHERAPY. THE TERM "GROWING PAINS" IS OFTEN USED TO COVER A RANGE OF CONDITIONS, BUT A PRECISE DIAGNOSIS IS KEY TO A SUCCESSFUL OUTCOME.
HAVING A THOROUGH ASSESSMENT WITH A SPECIALIST PAEDIATRIC MUSCULOSKELETAL PHYSIOTHERAPIST CAN ENSURE YOUR CHILD RECEIVES AN ACCURATE DIAGNOSIS AND A SAFE, EFFECTIVE TREATMENT PLAN.
TO ENSURE YOUR CHILD IS SEEN BY THE MOST APPROPRIATE PAEDIATRIC PHYSIOTHERAPY SPECIALIST FOR THEIR SPECIFIC NEEDS, PLEASE PROVIDE AS MUCH DETAIL AS POSSIBLE IN THE CONTACT FORM; THIS ALLOWS US TO EFFECTIVELY TRIAGE YOUR ENQUIRY.
