Pediatric physiotherapy aims to help children and youth move throughout their environment to the best of their ability, using methods such as exercise, stretching, strengthening, motor learning and play, and adaptive equipment. At FIREFLY our Physiotherapy team is made up of Physiotherapists (PTs), registered health care professionals with clinical expertise in the normal development of movement, and Rehabilitation Assistants, unregulated health professionals who work under the direction and supervision of a PT.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

After your referral is processed and a PT is available, they will meet with you to discuss your concerns and explain how the therapy team can help. Following an initial assessment of your child or youth, they will provide a report and review it with you and others involved in your child\u2019s or youth’s care. From there, a therapy plan will be created based on your child\u2019s or youth’s ongoing needs.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
