Physiotherapy can start from when your child is 3 months old.
One-to-one with a specialist practitioner and parent/carer, Sparkles physiotherapy sessions are 3 to 6 times per year depending on the age and need of your child. Based in a Children’s physiotherapy clinic in High Wycombe, each session is 45 minutes long.
With a clear understanding of the many physiological reasons that children with Down’s syndrome experience delays in their gross motor development, the therapist targets each session to help your child achieve major milestones such as: head control, sitting, crawling, standing, walking, using stairs, running, kicking, jumping.
The sessions are fun and child-centred, enabling your son or daughter to reach their full potential and grow with confidence. As a parent or carer you are provided with a programme of exercises and activities to follow at home to support your child.
