Paediatric Physiotherapy

From improving gross and fine motor skills to helping with sensory integration and sports injury, paediatric physiotherapy can make a big difference in a child's overall development.

Expect a thorough discussion, assessment, movement screening and goal-setting to not only understand your child’s concerns but also create a plan of action and long-term solutions that may include:

  • Home lifestyle strategies to implement with the family

  • Manual hands-on therapy

  • Biomechanics assessment and cueing

  • Individualized exercise programs

  • Education on how to foster consistent improvement towards rehab goals

  • Additional modalities including cupping and sports taping/bracing when appropriate

Our mission is to show you how to move, educate you, empower you, and prove to you that you have the power to heal yourself and your loved ones.

Paediatric physiotherapy treatment can help with:

1. Developmental Assessments: identify delays and areas of concern. Paediatric physiotherapists can provide recommendations and active interventions to help kids reach milestones.

2. Gross Motor Skill Interventions: include helping a child to learn to sit, crawl, walk, and engage in other activities that require large muscle control and coordination.

3. Sensory Integration: involves helping a child process and integrate sensory information from their environment, such as touch, sound, and movement.

4. Play-based Therapy: involves using play as a way to help children learn and practice new skills, such as throwing, catching, and kicking a ball.

5. Orthopaedic Rehabilitation: involves working with children who have orthopaedic conditions, such as fractures, dislocations and muscle strains to help them regain their physical function.

  • Danielle and the Flow team are amazing. Danielle starts every session with asking how your body is feeling and what areas are of concern for you for that session. She doesn't just do the routine visit and send you out the door. She takes the time to listen and then develops a treatment plan for that visit. I can't say enough about how amazing she is.
