Pediatrics Physiotherapy
Pediatrics physiotherapy is for everyone from 0 to 18 years old.
As children grow, they go through many stages of development, and sometimes they need a little extra support. At Fysio & Pilates, we support that development at every stage. Annalisa works with children with a wide range of needs, including neurological conditions, genetic disorders, supplementary development support and other challenges that can affect movement and development. Through individual assessment and age-appropriate therapy, we help support balance, coordination, mobility, and muscle strength, helping each child develop with confidence.
