At Triangle Physiotherapy, we specialize in Pediatric Physiotherapy or Kids Physiotherapy, providing expert care for infants, toddlers, and children experiencing movement difficulties, developmental delays, or musculoskeletal conditions. Our experienced physiotherapists take a compassionate, play-based approach to help your child achieve their optimal physical development.
Why Choose Pediatric Physiotherapy?
Children grow and develop at different rates, but when movement challenges arise, early intervention is key. Pediatric physiotherapy. Also known as Kids Physio, helps improve strength, coordination, posture, and mobility to support your child’s overall development and confidence in movement.
Common Conditions We Treat
We provide specialized assessment and treatment for a range of pediatric conditions, including:
Torticollis & Head Shape Management
Torticollis (tight neck muscles causing head tilt) can lead to head shape asymmetry (plagiocephaly or brachycephaly). Our gentle stretching, positioning strategies, and strengthening exercises help correct head and neck alignment.
Tummy Time Challenges & Delayed Motor Milestones
If your baby struggles with tummy time or is slow to reach developmental milestones like rolling, sitting, or crawling, our therapy sessions will encourage strength-building activities for motor skill progression.
Fine Motor Skills & V-Sitting
Challenges with grasping, reaching, or coordination may indicate a need for fine motor skill development. We also address improper sitting postures, such as the “W” sit, to promote better muscle engagement and core stability.
Toe Walking, Foot Pain & Arch Development
Persistent toe walking, flat feet, or arch concerns can affect balance and mobility. We provide stretching, strengthening, and gait training to promote proper foot mechanics.
Postural Concerns & Legg-Calvé-Perthes Disease
Poor posture can impact spinal alignment and musculoskeletal health. We offer targeted exercises for postural correction and pain management for conditions like Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease, which affects hip joint development.
Clubfoot Management
Whether your child has undergone corrective treatment or requires ongoing physiotherapy, we support foot mobility and strength to enhance overall function.

Our sessions are interactive and tailored to your child’s unique needs. We use engaging, age-appropriate exercises that focus on:
Improving strength, flexibility, and coordination
