Children's Physio

At Positive Steps Physiotherapy, we bring years of specialist experience and a genuine passion for supporting children and young people to thrive. We provide expert assessment and treatment for children with a wide range of needs, abilities, and goals—whether or not they have a formal diagnosis. 

We firmly believe that every child is unique and full of potential. That’s why our approach is always centred around the child and their family. We take the time to understand what truly matters to the individual, their goals, your challenges, and what you want to achieve and then build a personalised plan to help you get there. Our philosophy is simple: with the right support, encouragement, and guidance, children and young people can achieve amazing things.

Our comprehensive assessments are designed to identify your child’s strengths, as well as any areas where they may be experiencing difficulty. From there, we provide clear, practical advice and tailored physiotherapy interventions to support their development, confidence, and independence.

At Positive Steps Physiotherapy, we specialise in individualised, hands-on therapy that can be adapted to suit every child, regardless of their needs or abilities. We understand that progress looks different for every child, and we celebrate every step forward whether that be big or small.

We also take pride in working closely with families, schools, and other professionals to create a holistic, joined-up approach. By ensuring consistency across all environments, we help children build skills that transfer into everyday life at home, in school, and in the community so that they can reach their full potential.

We have extensive experience supporting children with a wide variety of conditions and presentations, including (but not limited to):

• Cerebral Palsy
• Rett Syndrome
• Head Injury
• Brain Tumours
• Muscular Dystrophy
• Down Syndrome
• Dyspraxia and coordination difficulties
• Hypermobility
• Scoliosis
• Toe walking
• In-toeing
• Flat feet
• Growing pains

We also recognise that many children and young people may not have a diagnosis and that’s absolutely okay. Our focus is always on the child in front of us and their experience.

At Positive Steps Physiotherapy, we are committed to creating a supportive, encouraging, and empowering environment where children feel confident to explore their abilities and take positive steps forward every day.
