Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy for children is one way you can ensure your child can feel their best and continue to develop to their full potential.

Call Us Today!

Our skilled team of pediatric therapists know that children’s bodies are different from adults and their development, injuries, and pain should be treated knowing this. With established experience treating infants, toddlers, children and teens, our pediatric physiotherapists can provide therapy in a fun and positive environment for your child.

Physiotherapy for children allows therapists to assess and treat children with developmental, neurological and growth-related issues. Pediatric physiotherapy is an often-overlooked treatment because we always associate physiotherapy as a solution for adults with injuries.

On the Ball believes that pediatric physiotherapy is one way you can ensure your child is on track for full body wellness into their adulthood. Our experienced pediatric physiotherapists have an in-depth understanding of pediatric conditions, illnesses and developmental stages. They have applied knowledge of reflexes, abnormalities, posture, alignment and growth milestones.

The goal of pediatric physiotherapy is to assist a child’s development and independence in life while taking their unique needs into consideration. Pediatric physiotherapy might be an option for your child if they are experiencing pain, gross motor challenges, or growth and development issues. An initial appointment with one of our physiotherapists will include a complete assessment and tailor-made plan created to meet your child’s individual needs.

Sports and orthopedic conditions

Keeping your child active is one of the best ways you can ensure health into adulthood, build self-esteem and a good understanding of physical literacy. Active children are generally happy children, but injuries from sports and exercise are very common. As your child is still growing, they are more vulnerable than adults to different kinds of sports injuries and roadblocks.

We can help your child with:

  • Sports injuries
  • Post-concussion symptoms
  • Growing pains
  • Strains and sprains
  • Poor biomechanics
  • Deconditioning from prolong illness

Neurological and Genetic Conditions

Neurological and genetic conditions often affect our children’s brains, spinal cords, nerves and muscles. We help children with all conditions and use a systematic, individualized approach in order to maximize the outcomes of physiotherapy for your child.

We work with you and your child to create and follow through on goals that will help your child’s self-esteem and physical wellness. At On the Ball, we love to include and educate parents so we can empower them with tools they can use at home and approach issues with confidence.

We know your child has complex needs, and as such, our pediatric physiotherapy team has trained extensively within Canada and the United States to bring an innovative and evidence-based approach on how to work with children who have neurological and genetic conditions.

Our expertly designed therapy rooms and gyms were created to promote a positive and fun environment for both the child and therapist. Our spaces include toys and adapted equipment to work on a child’s specific goals.

Here are some of our treatment approaches:

  • Assessment of biomechanics and applications of alignment solutions
  • Medek therapy
  • Neuromuscular biofeedback
  • Hypervibe, also known as whole body vibration
  • Adapted climbing wall, recumbent bike and rowing machine
