Can babies be treated with Pediatric Physiotherapy?

In newborns, conditions like plagiocephaly(head shape concerns), torticollis, and cerebral palsy are treated with pediatric physio(more conditions are mentioned above). Few conditions are recognized at birth, and few after a while may be developed due to their gene or any injury. Our physiotherapists carefully assess their conditions and then customize treatment sessions for them. As babies cannot grasp or follow physiotherapist instructions, they will be playfully drawn to follow each exercise or method using colourful toys.

Also, parents will be taught how to handle newborns who are dealing with the above-mentioned conditions. Floor mats are preferred while working with babies as they tend to explore the environment around them, which in turn will positively impact their improvement in the treatment and make their lives better. For effective outcomes, this can also be followed by parents at home as the physiotherapist guides.
