Building stronger movement patterns starts with understanding each child’s unique needs.

Physiotherapy can support children with balance, coordination, strength and confidence in everyday activities like walking, playing and participating.

If something doesn’t feel quite right, early support can make a meaningful difference.

We support infants, children, teens and young adults across the Inner West (Lilyfield and Leichhardt) and Narrandera, with telehealth options available.

We love using Squigz in OT sessions because they make skill building FUN while targeting so many important developmental areas! ✨🌈

Today we used Squigz for:
⭐ balance & upper limb strengthening
⭐ spacing practice
⭐ bilateral coordination & midline crossing
⭐ squatting for dressing-related skills
⭐ pinching practice & tripod grasp development

Play based therapy helps children build confidence, coordination, strength, and independence in everyday tasks 🫶

The deadbug is one of the most underrated core exercises we use in therapy. 🐞✨

Why?

Because it’s not just about strength, it’s about control.

✨ Builds deep core stability
✨ Trains coordination between upper & lower body
✨ Helps protect your lower back

And with support, we can guide the movement to make sure it’s done safely and effectively. 😊🌈

Not just a fun challenge, this is physio in action ✨🌈

The BOSU brings in core activation, shoulder stability, balance, and coordination all at once. Every wobble = your body learning to adjust, stabilise, and get stronger 💪

This is exactly how we design sessions, purposeful, play based, and aligned with physio goals to build movement skills. 🌱🤸‍♀️

Proprioceptive activities = powerful, calming input for the body 💪✨

Also known as “heavy work,” these activities help kids understand where their body is in space, improve coordination, and regulate their nervous system.

In this video we’re showcasing, everyday movements like:

✔️ Wall push-ups
✔️ Chair push-ups
✔️ Tug of war
✔️ Carrying groceries
✔️ Chair pushes
✔️ Blowing bubbles through a straw

These types of activities provide deep pressure input to muscles and joints, helping with focus, emotional regulation, and overall body awareness 🧠💛

The best part? You can do them almost anywhere.

You know your child best.

But sometimes it’s hard to tell what’s part of development… and what might need a bit more support.

If you’ve ever found yourself wondering
“Is this something to be concerned about?”
you’re not alone.

We’ve put together a new blog that walks through common signs to look for at different ages, including communication, movement, behaviour and everyday skills.

It’s designed to give families a clearer understanding of what to watch for and when to consider reaching out for support.

If you have questions, our team is always here to help.

Building core, neck, and trunk control doesn’t have to feel like exercise💪

Through simple, purposeful play, like reaching, sit-ups, and fun under-the-table adventures, we’re helping little bodies grow stronger, more stable, and more confident ✨

By turning movement into a game, children stay motivated while developing the foundation they need for posture, coordination, and everyday skills 🌈
