Physiotherapy Services
Comprehensive Assessment
We are skilled at working out why babies have gross motor or physical problems. We use standardised assessments to guide our diagnoses, plan treatment programs and evaluate progress.
We take parental concern seriously, and take extra time to listen and understand individual circumstances.
Early intervention
Early intervention is about taking action as soon as possible to address a baby’s movement problems, before they become more difficult to reverse.
We help babies develop the postural control they need to roll over, sit up, crawl, cruise and walk. Being able to move freely and independently is important for learning and well-being.
Musculoskeletal Care
We understand the relationship between growth, alignment, biomechanics and function across the early years.
We use evidence-based programs to treat a range of childhood orthopaedic conditions. We believe babies and children should develop a strong physical foundation as the first step to a healthy, active lifestyle.
Home-based Support
We use targeted, playful home exercises to extend babies between sessions. Activities are tested in our clinic so they are successful, safe, and at the right dosage for home practice.
We may suggest modifications to individual play spaces to make motor skill learning easier, and can advise on baby equipment or toys to support early development.
Baby massage
Baby massage is a great way to strengthen the bond between parent and baby. In some cases, baby massage can be successful in the symptomatic relief of tummy pain.
We have extra training in infant massage instruction and are qualified to teach full body massage sequences to parents that can be used on a daily basis. We can advise on appropriate massage oil, testing for skin sensitivities, when and how long to massage for, and safe positioning for massage.
