WHAT IS PEDIATRIC PHYSIOTHERAPY?

Pediatric physiotherapy is a treatment aimed at enhancing children’s motor skills through various hands-on techniques, exercises, and interventions. It plays a crucial role in diagnosing and treating conditions affecting bones, muscles, and joints, addressing functional impairments such as muscle tone, strength, coordination, balance, posture, and mobility. Pediatric physiotherapists incorporate fun into therapy through games and activities, ensuring an enjoyable experience for the child. They also educate parents on assisting their child’s progress at home. The purpose, therefore, is to assist children to achieve their full physical potential and have better lives.
