Early Intervention

Early intervention can be crucial for children with developmental challenges. Our team emphasises the importance of early assessment and intervention to enhance the child’s overall quality of life.

Compassionate Care

Our compassionate and patient-centred care ensures that children feel comfortable during their therapy sessions. We strive to build trust and rapport with our young patients to make their physiotherapy journey rewarding.

Conditions

“We treat babies, children and teenagers in the comfort of their own home with a range of conditions. Childrens are not just small adults and therefore need to be treated differently. They often wish for different outcomes than adults and so the physiotherapy plan will reflect this.”

Below is a list of conditions that we will treat (although the list is not exhaustive!) If you are unsure, contact us for informal discussion about your child.

Neurological Conditions

• For example – cerebral palsy, spina bifida, acquired brain injury, muscular dystrophy and other genetic conditions.

Coordination & Balance

• Concerns regarding reduced balance, increased falls, inability to ride a bike independently.
• Diagnosed concerns e.g. developmental coordination disorder (DCD) or dyspraxia.

Milestones

• Failing to reach motor milestones such as sitting, standing & walking can be a concern. I can assess, treat where required & offer ideas to try at home.

Orthopaedic Conditions

From sprains and fractures to joint pain, we address a wide range of orthopedic conditions in children, helping them recover with the right blend of therapy and encouragement.

Long Term Conditions

• Chronic fatigue/ME
• Chronic pain
• Any long term condition resulting in deconditioning or lack of strength & fitness.

Rehabilitation

• Following injury, illness or surgery when further physiotherapy would be beneficial
• This could be during/after cancer treatment, after a fracture, following Selective Dorsal Rhizotomy surgery (SDR) or at any other time when additional physiotherapy is needed.

Why Choose Pilates?

Pilates has the same benefits for children as well as adults. It can help with:

Physiotherapy-led pilates has many benefits – the pilates programme is tailored to the needs of the child/young person as the physiotherapist has an in depth knowledge of illnesses and injuries which can cause problems with movement.

Hazel loves pilates and has been teaching or attending classes for several years She is APPI trained (The Australian Physiotherapy and Pilates Institute) in the full Matwork series plus has further training in Kids and Teens Pilates

Pilates is offered on a 1:1 (or 2:1) basis or in a small group format. The groups are currently run via the Zoom platform.
The group classes come in two different forms -Story-style and Teens and Tweens The Story-Style class is fun, and combines dynamic movement with an imaginative element.
The Teens and Tweens class is an adult-style class but with the benefit of exercising with peers and is tailored using Hazel’s knowledge of issues relating to adolescence and rapid growth.

Our Happy Patients

L , Edinburgh

"Hazel came to see my 11 year old who was suffering from back and rib pain. She was incredibly thorough and very knowledgeable. Even though my daughter is at a "tricky age", Hazel completely won her over."

K, Edinburgh
