What Q helps with

Paediatric Physiotherapy

Treatment that uses movement, exercise and hands-on techniques to improve physical function, strength and mobility. For children, physiotherapy often targets gross motor development, balance and coordination; for adults it addresses pain, injury recovery and long-term conditions.

Developmental Physiotherapy

Optimises a child's function throughout all stages of development, including infants not achieving appropriate milestones, toddlers acquiring new gross motor skills, and school age children participating in physical activities.

Hydrotherapy

Therapeutic exercises performed in a heated pool under the supervision of a physiotherapist or occupational therapist. The water's buoyancy reduces joint stress and allows movement that may be difficult on land, making it beneficial for children and adults with physical disability, chronic pain or low muscle tone.

Paediatric Exercise Physiology

Accredited exercise physiologists specialise in the delivery of exercise for the prevention and management of health conditions and disabilities.

Assistive Technology Prescription

Physiotherapists prescribe equipment such as standing frames, wheelchairs or walkers to assist children to access and participate in activities.

Neurological and Congenital Disabilities

Paediatric physiotherapy for neurological disorders and disabilities, aiming to optimise development and participation within family, school and community.

Autism Spectrum Disorder

Physiotherapy to help with optimal development of motor skills by assessing the neuro sensory motor profile and developing programs to address underlying weaknesses.

Joint Hypermobility Disorder and EDS

Management of joint hypermobility (excessive joint movement) and related conditions.

Musculoskeletal Conditions & Sports Physiotherapy

Assessment of overall physical profile and creation of age appropriate exercise programs for injury rehabilitation, understanding the impact of growth and development.

Chronic Pain Management

A multidisciplinary approach to reducing and managing persistent pain, combining psychological strategies, physiotherapy, exercise physiology and education. The goal is to improve quality of life and daily functioning, not just to reduce pain intensity.

Infant Care

Management of postural anomalies that develop in utero or after birth, including education for parents and carers on correction strategies.

Orthopaedic Management

Conservative management of orthopaedic conditions or injuries through physiotherapy intervention to minimise pain and strengthen affected areas.

Exercise Physiology

Structured, evidence-based exercise programs designed and supervised by an Accredited Exercise Physiologist to improve physical health, manage chronic conditions and support disability. For children it can target motor development; for adults it often addresses pain, metabolic conditions and mental health.

Cardiorespiratory Care

Chest physiotherapy for children with respiratory conditions such as pneumonia or Cystic Fibrosis.

Bladder and Bowel Dysfunction

Assistance with urinary or faecal incontinence including day time and night time accidents, using home strategies and education or exercise programs.

Hard Core Kids®

A unique physiotherapy based exercise program for kids aged 3-18 years to create a fun, dynamic exercise environment to optimise physical development.

Occupational Therapy

A therapy that helps children and adults develop the everyday skills needed for daily life — from dressing, writing and play to sensory processing and school participation. Occupational therapists assess what is getting in the way and design practical strategies to build independence and confidence.

Our approach

Physiotherapy at Q Paediatrics is based on optimising your child's physical development and functional performance throughout their growth. Treatment evaluates your child's body structures and how they function, looks at what they can and cannot do, and focuses on improving activities important to your family—such as running, riding a bike or handwriting. The approach recognises that injuries, developmental difficulties, pain and disability can impact a child's ability to participate at home, school and in the community, so treatment aims to minimise these impacts and work towards your child's goals. Sessions are tailored to each child's needs across conditions ranging from developmental difficulties to sports injuries and neurological disabilities.
