Babies
Safe, evidence-based and caring physiotherapy for your baby. From the earliest days, our paediatric physiotherapy team can support your baby’s movement and development, with practical guidance to help you feel confident at home.
Common reasons we see babies include:
Difficulty with reaching milestones or delayed gross motor skills - difficulty with tummy time, head control in sitting, delayed rolling, crawling or walking
Babies with a flat spot on their head or neck tightness (Plagiocephaly, Brachycephaly & Torticollis)
Hip dysplasia, requiring a pavlik harness or rhino brace
Premature babies or babies with a low birth weight or complex birth requiring developmental input
Positional or structural talipes (foot turned inwards/outwards from birth)
Clavicle fracture or Erb’s palsy/ Brachial Plexus Injury
Babies with hypotonia or low muscle tone
Children with motor delays relating to genetic diagnosis or disability including Trisomy 21, gene duplications/ deletions, Prader-Willi Syndrome, Turner’s Syndrome
Babies and children at risk of cerebral palsy or who have high muscle tone (hypertonia).
