This comprehensive assessment incorporates valid and reliable clinical tools to ensure detailed screening occurs and treatment interventions are evidence based and so implemented with confidence.
Katie’s repertoire of knowledge in this field, affords her the ability to confidently recognise what might be a potential problem in the early stages and draw on her experience to recommend solutions and/or on-referral.
Often a treatment journey incorporates a multi-disciplinary team care approach, which can include Podiatry, Physiotherapy and Paediatric Occupational Therapy.
We have all three of these disciplines under one roof, as we collaborate for the best possible outcome for your child.
