FocusHealth Children's Physiotherapy In Electronic City: Helping Your Child Thrive

If you have any concerns about your child’s development, movement, or physical abilities, a consultation with a children’s physiotherapist can be beneficial. Here are some signs that physiotherapy might help:

• Your child is not meeting typical developmental milestones for their age (rolling over, crawling, walking, etc.)
• Your child has difficulty with balance, coordination, or walking.
• Your child complains of pain or stiffness in their muscles or joints.
• Your child has a diagnosed condition that affects their movement, such as torticollis or plagiocephaly.
• Your child has recovered from surgery and needs rehabilitation to regain strength and mobility.

The physiotherapist will first conduct a thorough assessment to understand your child’s specific needs. This may involve observing your child’s movement patterns, asking questions about their medical history, and performing gentle physical tests. Based on the assessment, the therapist will develop a personalized treatment plan that is fun and engaging for your child. Treatment may include:

• Exercises and activities designed to improve strength, coordination, and balance.
• Play-based therapy that incorporates toys and games into the treatment process.
• Stretching and massage techniques to improve flexibility and reduce pain.
• Gait training to address walking difficulties.
• Advice and guidance for parents on how to support their child’s progress at home.

The length of treatment will vary depending on your child’s individual needs and the severity of their condition. The physiotherapist will discuss the expected treatment duration with you after the initial assessment.

With regular physiotherapy sessions and home exercises, you can expect to see improvements in your child’s strength, coordination, mobility, and overall well-being. Physiotherapy can help your child reach their developmental milestones, participate more fully in daily activities, and gain confidence in their physical abilities.

While a referral is not always necessary, it’s a good idea to discuss your concerns with your child’s pediatrician. They can provide guidance and determine if a referral is needed for your specific situation
