Physio For Children & Infants
Helping Kids Achieve Their Best Through Paediatric Physiotherapy
At Physio Inq, our dedicated kids physio team is passionate about helping children reach their full potential. Kids physiotherapy is an essential part of supporting a child’s health, development, and confidence; whether they’re managing a genetic condition, recovering from an injury, or experiencing movement or developmental challenges.
Our experienced paediatric physiotherapists work closely with children of all ages, from babies and toddlers to school-aged kids and teens. Every session is designed to be fun, engaging, and tailored to your child’s individual needs. We focus on improving movement, coordination, strength, and overall function through play-based therapy and evidence-backed techniques.
At Physio Inq, we understand that every child is unique. That’s why our approach considers not only the physical aspects of therapy, but also the emotional and social needs of growing kids; helping them build confidence, independence, and joy in movement.
