They will listen carefully to understand how the condition is affecting your child's daily activities and function. Following this detailed evaluation, the therapist will provide clear advice on how to manage the condition and create a personalised home exercise program designed specifically for your child's needs. This collaborative approach ensures you understand the plan and can support your child's recovery at home.
