Children are full of energy & life - and sometimes they need a little help learning to explore and experience their environment.
The Little Children (TLC) Physiotherapy Services is dedicated to providing high quality, specialised paediatric physiotherapy services in the comfort of your own home.
We get to know your child so that together, we can develop a unique, customised treatment programme to give your child the boost he or she needs to reach their full developmental potential
Infants, babies, toddlers and young children are evaluated for movement disorders, range of motion, posture, strength, muscle tone, balance, gross motor skills, mobility and gait.
We help you understand your child's condition and what is stopping his/her body from functioning optimally. Various issues affecting the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular and sensory systems are addressed.
We believe greatly in early intervention which leads to best therapeutic outcomes. The frequency and regularity of therapy sessions are also crucial in enabling positive changes in children. Hence, TLC focuses in providing home based therapy, making physiotherapy sessions more convenient and accessible to children as well as their parents.
The involvement of family members and caregivers is greatly encouraged during treatment sessions. Education for home exercises are provided to ensure good follow through with therapy. Paediatricians and other referral resources are updated regularly to enhance the continuity of care for our children.
