Naia Naia
"Our daughter, Naia, has hemiplegic cerebral palsy which affects her left side (mainly arm and leg). She started off with NHS physiotherapy from 6 months old, but after 8 months she was still not engaging with this and so was making little progress.
We approached several private physios and were particularly impressed with Chris right from our initial assessment session. He took the time and effort to clearly explain how Naia’s condition would affect her ability to control her movement, and how this linked in with the approach that he would use to treat her.
He has taught us how to integrate physiotherapy into everyday activities, and as a result we have seen great progress in Naia’s development, and also her attitude to physiotherapy in general (both with Chris and her NHS team). We greatly enjoy working with Chris and seeing the benefits of the work in Naia's movement, and have happily recommended him to friends whose children require help with physical development."

Lennie Lennie
My son Lenny was diagnosed at 13 months old with Quadripelgic Spastic Cerebral Palsy, affecting mainly his lower limbs.
I struggled to get lenny to co-operate with various private physios an therefore relied on his once a month NHS based appointments, Finally i came across Kidsphysio2u following recommendation.
I've never been so pleased with the help, support and knowledge of a physiotherapist.
From the 1st appointment lenny has engaged and responded very well with therapy. I have no hesitation in reccomending their service to any families needing flexible, reliable and most of all professional care for there child/children.
Many thanks for your continued support.

Some Physiotherapy Clinics will treat adults and the occasional child.
We dont treat adults as we specialise in children. Our Physiotherapists are members of the Association of Paedaitric Chartered Physiotherapists. This is an organisation for Physiotherapists who only treat children. It's also a good question to ask when seeking Physiotherapy privately for your child
Our feedback and our results are first class. If you dont believe us then contact us and we let you speak to one of our families.
How do we treat? How do we treat?
Your child's condition will often dictate where, when and how you are treated. We use a combination of Physiotherapy, Bobath Therapy and also other therapeutic adjucts such as Kinesiotaping to promote normal movement, correct muscle imbalance, restore function and reduce pain.
Your Physiotherapist will recommend the frequency of treatment, however you can be seen as little or as much as you like.
You may also been given different options of treatment and where appropriate a choice of these can be made.
