PaediatricPhysiotherapy can help treat a wide range of conditions and disorders that affect infants, children, and adolescents. Here are some examples of paediatric diseases and conditions that can be treated with physiotherapy:

Cerebral palsy:This is a group of neurological disorders that affect movement, posture, and muscle tone. Physiotherapy can help improve mobility, strength, and function in children with cerebral palsy.

Developmental Delay:Physiotherapy can help children with developmental delays, such as delayed walking or crawling, by working on gross motor skills and improving strength and coordination.

Torticollis: This is a condition where the neck muscles are tight, causing the head to tilt to one side. Physiotherapy can help stretch and strengthen the affected muscles to improve head position and mobility.

Down Syndrome: Physiotherapy can help improve muscle tone, balance, and coordination in children with Down syndrome.

Spina Bifida: This is a congenital disorder that affects the spine and can cause paralysis or weakness in the legs. Physiotherapy can help children with spina bifida to improve mobility, strength, and function.

Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis: This is a type of arthritis that affects children and can cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in the joints. Physiotherapy can help reduce pain and stiffness and improve joint mobility.

Sports Injuries: Physiotherapy can help treat sports injuries in children, such as sprains, strains, and fractures, and help them return to their sport as quickly and safely as possible.

Congenital Orthopaedic Deformities: are physical abnormalities of the bones, joints, and muscles that are present at birth. These deformities can occur due to a variety of reasons, including genetic factors, environmental factors, or a combination of both.
Some examples of congenital orthopaedic deformities in children include:

Clubfoot:a condition in which the foot is turned inward and downward, making it difficult or impossible to walk normally.

Congenital hip dysplasia:a condition in which the hip joint does not develop properly, which can lead to hip dislocation, instability, and arthritis.

Limb length discrepancy:a condition in which one leg is longer than the other, which can cause problems with gait and posture.

Congenital scoliosis:an abnormal curvature of the spine that is present at birth and can cause breathing difficulties and other complications.

Congenital limb deformities:abnormalities of the arms or legs, such as missing fingers or toes, extra fingers or toes, or bent or twisted limbs.
