A main goal of therapy is to assist children, including those with mild to severe disabilities, babies, and adults to become more active and independent in their daily lives. Evidence suggests that early therapy takes advantage of neuroplasticity and opens up new pathways in the brain so that the child or adult’s functional potential can be reached.
Kate Hedges physiotherapy takes a holistic approach and aims to improve posture, movement and sensory-motor development within their ability level so daily tasks: roll over, sit up, sit to stand, using arms and hands, pull to stand, walk, eat /dress, steps, playground activities, can be assisted. As a result, more participation in the community may occur.
