Specialized Physiotherapy for Children with Neuromotor Disorders
Explanations:
Neuromotor pediatric physiotherapy allows for a comprehensive neuromotor assessment in children with neurological conditions affecting motor skills. It also offers personalized care to support young children and promote the development of their mobility and coordination.
Why is this important?
- To assess various aspects of motor function
- To monitor the child's progress and provide ongoing physiotherapy support
- To develop a tailored treatment and care plan
- To reduce risks linked to physical inactivity (e.g., edema, circulatory/respiratory issues)
- To stimulate the child’s unique potential
- To strengthen the bond and interaction between parent and child
- To provide better understanding and appropriate support for parents
Who benefits from this support?
Children aged 0 to 6 years:
- Requiring a neuromotor assessment due to concerns about motor development
- Children with hypertonic conditions (e.g., cerebral palsy, infantile hemiplegia, genetic disorders)
- Children aged 0 to 15 years with motor difficulties, such as being overweight, without neurological pathology
What therapeutic approaches are offered?
- Initial assessment including medical history, evaluation scales, and physical examination
- Follow-up evaluations to track progress
- Motor stimulation through mobilization exercises and fun, age-appropriate activities to promote motor development and coordination
- Muscle relaxation techniques for hypertonia to reduce muscle tension and improve mobility and coordination
