WHAT IS IT?
Pediatric physiotherapy is a field in physiotherapy that specializes in the assessment, treatment, and management of infants, children, and adolescents with a variety of congenital, developmental, neuromuscular, skeletal, or acquired disorders/diseases. Pediatric physiotherapists employ their clinical expertise to detect any abnormalities in childhood motor development and use various therapeutic activities to ensure that motors skills, such as rolling, crawling, walking, running, jumping, are acquired without delays, compensations or asymmetries. Different types of therapeutic activities are used in order to promote participation and functional independence.
