Child and Respiratory Physiotherapy

Children's physiotherapy is the branch of physiotherapy that specializes in disorders that affect children.

This discipline encompasses pediatric pathologies, whether acute or chronic.

Paediatric physiotherapy is the field of physiotherapy specialising in disorders affecting the paediatric population. It is an area that encompasses any paediatric pathology, whether transitory or permanent.
We perceive children in an integral way, from a biopsychosocial approach.
We cover all areas of child development.
Paediatric assessment and treatment differs from what is established in the adult population, for this reason it is important that any consultation or doubt in relation to a child is attended by a paediatric physiotherapist with the appropriate skills and abilities.
