Welcome to North West Physio in Nundah, where our Paediatric Physiotherapist is dedicated to unlocking your child’s full potential.
As parents, we tirelessly pursue the best for our children, aiming to provide them with every opportunity to flourish and excel. Yet, sometimes, our little ones encounter obstacles requiring expert guidance and assistance.
In this article, we delve into paediatric physiotherapy, including:
– understanding the benefits
– how to know if and when your child might benefit from paediatric physiotherapy services
– exploring treatment approaches and NDIS assistance
Why bring your child to a Paediatric Physiotherapist?
Parents may bring their child to a Paediatric Physiotherapist for various reasons. It could be concerned about pain in muscles or joints, delayed motor skill development, or noticeable postural abnormalities.
Some children may have pre-existing conditions like autism, cerebral palsy, or muscular dystrophy that could benefit from physiotherapy interventions.
Determining if your child needs Paediatric Physiotherapy
If any condition hinders your child’s ability to play and develop motor skills, seeking physiotherapy is crucial. Whether your child struggles to keep up with peers due to coordination issues or experiences pain that limits participation, our team is here to help.
Paediatric Physio: what to expect during your child’s assessment
Our physiotherapist conducts a comprehensive physical evaluation during the initial assessment, identifying areas that may require attention. These could range from balance and muscle strength to coordination. Together, we develop a personalised plan focusing on functional and play-based activities tailored to your child’s needs.
Approach to treatment for children with neurological conditions or developmental delays
Our treatment approach revolves around the goals you and your child set. These goals often emphasise enhancing social participation and school engagement for children with neurological conditions or developmental delays. We aim to empower your child to achieve their fullest potential through tailored interventions.
NDIS support services
North West Physio Nundah supports children with disabilities covered by the National Disability Insurance Scheme (NDIS). Whether they have Autism Spectrum Disorder, ADHD, Cerebral Palsy, or muscular dystrophy, we accept clients under the NDIS and offer both self-managed and plan-managed options.
Creating a welcoming environment for children
We understand the importance of creating a comfortable and inviting space for children during physiotherapy sessions. Our open gym space provides a safe environment where children can explore and engage in play-based interventions tailored to their interests, ensuring a positive experience every visit.
Supporting your child’s progress outside of sessions
Our commitment extends beyond the therapy room. We provide parents with guidance on how to support their child’s progress outside of sessions. From implementing strategies at home to collaborating with teachers and caregivers, we empower you to reinforce your child’s development in various environments.
