Paediatrics

A paediatric musculoskeletal physiotherapy assessment is a comprehensive evaluation of your child's movement, posture, strength, flexibility, coordination, and physical function. It is designed to identify the cause of pain, injury, or movement difficulties affecting muscles, joints, bones, ligaments, or tendons.

​

During the assessment, the physiotherapist will take a detailed history of your child's symptoms, medical background, activity levels, and goals. They will then perform an age-appropriate physical examination, which may include observing movement patterns, assessing joint range of motion, muscle strength, balance, gait (walking and running), and functional activities.

​

Following the assessment, you will receive a clear explanation of the findings, recommendations for management, and an individualised treatment plan to support your child's recovery, and participation in everyday activities, sport, and play.
