The Benefits of Physiotherapy for Pediatric Patients

Every child should move confidently, without restrictions. If you have a concern about your child's movement, we, a pediatric physiotherapy in Dubai, can offer gentle, evidence-based options for young bodies. From babies developing their crawl, to teens recovering from sports injury, physiotherapy for children will help develop strength, coordination, and confidence. At Physiowell Dubai we know how to make children excel according to their own needs and with an individualized approach in every stage of their development.

What Is Pediatric Physiotherapy?

Pediatric physiotherapy is a specialized delivery of child physical therapy in Dubai for newborns, infants, toddlers, children, and adolescents. Sessions are designed differently than those for adults. Pediatric physiotherapy is a unique experience in which sessions are playful, fun, motivating and age appropriate. Pediatric physiotherapy improves motor skills, builds muscle strength, helps correct postural issues, and helps with balance and coordination. Our team specialize in physiotherapy for toddlers who are just starting to walk or older children needing motor skills therapy. We meet your kids where they are and help them improve their physical condition.

Common Conditions Treated with Pediatric Physiotherapy

Many childhood problems can benefit from early intervention physiotherapy such as Developmental delay treatment and neurological conditions like cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, and torticollis in infants. Children with flat feet and postural difficulties, or children experiencing delays in crawling and walking are also well supported. Children who are active in sports or are otherwise at risk for sports injury will also benefit from physiotherapy at our pediatric rehab clinic in Dubai, where every treatment plan is designed especially for each child.

Main Benefits of Physiotherapy for Children

There is evidence showing a lot of benefits of physiotherapy for kids. Children demonstrate improvements in motor coordination and balance, increased muscle strength and flexibility, and enhanced awareness of improved posture and gait. When therapy is provided as early as possible, it can increase the confidence of children and allow them to participate in the day-to-day activities they want to participate in because they can perform and are comfortable doing things like playing and going to school.

How Pediatric Physiotherapy Sessions Work

At Physiowell, every therapy journey starts with the evaluation process where we assess your child to capture their movement and abilities. After our in-depth evaluation, our therapists develop your child’s goals, and move forward with a play-based plan that includes fun, engaging exercises, stretching techniques, and balance activities. Depending on what we are focusing on in that session, we may use engaging activities that children already know from their play, which includes balls, walkers, and balance boards. This makes our sessions continually interesting and motivating. Our therapists also keep records of their progress, and ensure that they have a clear understanding of your child and how they are progressing. At Physiowell we want to make sure therapy is never deemed threatening, as well we strive to build rapport with each client, so that every session is a positive experience.

Importance of Early Intervention

The most positive outcomes for children occur through early intervention in physiotherapy when the first signs of a delay or concern arises, rather than waiting until the child is age appropriate for school. By addressing development early you will limit future outcomes such as stiffness in their joints, tightness of the muscle or worse yet a further increase in developmental delay. The earlier you can access support, the better outcomes for him or her, and the more positive transition to school and daily living. Early support may provide children the opportunity to reach important developmental milestones.

Role of Parents in Physiotherapy Success

Parents play a pivotal role in the progress of each child. Every time a parent can be consistent with home activities and encouragement between therapy sessions, every child wins! Simply attending scheduled appointments, asking questions, and learning techniques to carry over their progress at home all add up to results for each child. Working with your therapist creates a team to foster sustained success for your child.
