At Storybook Physiotherapy we work with a range of infant conditions. Our mission is to facilitate your baby’s purposeful play and development in a safe and meaningful way.
Initial consultation
Before we dive into the journey of nurturing your little one’s development, each child begins with an initial evaluation. Together, we’ll explore your child’s health history, assess their functional capabilities, engage in conversations about present and potential challenges, and delve into your gross-motor objectives.
At the end of this insightful initial evaluation, you’ll receive a personalised home exercise program and a recommended care plan. Your child will also be evaluated for the suitability of CME therapy, often inquired about by families. These resources are crafted to support your child as they venture towards achieving the developmental milestones we’ve discussed during your session.
Subsequent appointments
These 45-minute sessions custom-tailored to your child and designed to help them achieve their gross motor goals, improve physical function, and enhance their overall quality of life. At the conclusion of each session, you may receive updated recommendations and/or home exercise programs in order to continue promoting progress.
Conditions we commonly see:
- Developmental Delay/ not reaching milestones (e.g not rolling, not moving into sitting by 9 months, not crawling or creeping by 10 months, not pulling to stand by 12 months)
- Infants with low or high tone
- Foot posture (positional talipes)
- Brachial Plexus Injury
- Monitoring of growth and development of premature infants
- Torticollis/ Plagiocephaly (asymmetry with head shape)
- Infants not tolerating tummy time
- Assessment of general movements and gross motor function
