Conditions

We’re able to assess these conditions and provide advice or treatment as required. Not all conditions require physiotherapy and we can determine this via a free telephone consultation or booking an initial assessment.

Conditions we work with.

There are many conditions that can affect the physical health and development of children. Some are associated with growth, injury, birth history or genetics.

Neuro-developmental.

Conditions affecting your child’s development can cause distress and worry. We are able to determine if this delay will improve with time or requires therapy input to support their development.

We are experienced in the management of children with the following neurological and developmental conditions:

There are many more conditions both diagnosed and undiagnosed. As therapists we are practised in managing the presenting condition whether the child has a confirmed diagnosis or not.

We are experienced in the management of children with the following neurological and developmental conditions:

Cerebral Palsy

Toe Walking

Genetic diagnoses

Down Syndrome

Duchennes muscular dystrophy

Undiagnosed developmental delay

Hydrocephalus

Musculoskeletal conditions.

Pain and movement difficulties caused by injury or growth conditions can have a significant and distressing impact on a child’s daily life. These challenges may affect their ability to attend school regularly, participate in sports, and engage in leisure activities, which are crucial for both physical and social development.

At Sure Steps, we understand the profound effect these issues can have, and we are committed to helping your child regain their mobility, confidence, and quality of life.

Typical musculoskeletal conditions seen:

Conditions related to growth such as osgood schlatters, osteochondritis, severs disease, anterior knee pain

Muscle and soft tissue injury

Back pain

Post fractures

Post orthopaedic surgery

Gait disorders

Congenital conditions.

In addition, some children are born with congenital conditions that can impact their early development. These conditions, while potentially challenging, often respond exceptionally well to early intervention. By identifying and addressing these developmental concerns as soon as possible, we can help your child build a strong foundation for future growth and mobility.

Early treatment can make a significant difference in their ability to meet developmental milestones and live a fuller, more active life.

Typical congenital conditions seen:

Plagiocephaly, brachycephaly

Talipes/ other foot deformities

Erbs palsy, brachial plexus injury

Torticollis
