Paediatric Physio Lisburn

We offer a professional and friendly service to meet the specific needs of children from birth to adolescence. The child’s condition may be mild, moderate, severe or progressive. We accept self-referral from the parent thereby ensuring treatment is immediate with no delay waiting for health service medical intervention.

The specialised paediatric physio will assess, advise and instruct young people and teach parents of babies and children physiotherapeutic handling, play activities and suitable stretches and exercises.
