Physiotherapy at More Than Able
Paediatric physiotherapy experts on the Sunshine Coast
What is physiotherapy?
More Than Able physiotherapists (or movement wizards) are not your standard injury or strengthening consultants. Our physiotherapists specialise in the pediatric movement for babies, children, and adolescents.
Movement, whatever that looks like for your child, is a pivotal part of unlocking their purpose in life. Developing the most functional motor patterns early is foundational in your little one’s growth throughout their lifespan.
Our physiotherapists are acutely aware of, and expert-level in providing therapy for little-to-medium-sized clients (also referred to as children).
Perfect.
Let’s talk about it.
If you’re unsure if our physiotherapy input is right for your child, fill the below form and one of our team will be in contact with you to help.
Feeling confident and comfortable in how your body moves and navigates your surrounding is an essential part of learning and growing throughout your life, particularly in childhood.
Working with More Than Able physiotherapists will help your child better understand how their body works and gives them access to things in their world.
As our little one’s brains are continuously learning and changing, developing the most functional motor patterns is foundational in their growth throughout their lifespan.
You do not need a referral to see our Physiotherapists and booking an appointment is easy as filling our intake form out.
The form is quick and simple and helps us understand your child’s needs.
Once the intake form is received our team will review and our client care team will contact you with the next steps.
The first appointment is used to get to know you and your child whilst we assess your child’s current abilities and develop an understanding of their strengths and difficulties.
Together, as a team, we will set goals for your child and make a plan to achieve those goals.
Not sure of the process?
01
Assessment
The first appointment is about getting to know you and your child and finding out what matters to your family. Our therapists assess your child’s current abilities and develop an understanding of their strengths and difficulties.
02
Setting goals
We are committed to collaborating with our clients, and their parents about what matters to them. Let’s dream up a future where they’re a ballet dancer, an independent adult, or an astronaut. As a team (yes, you’re on the team) we will break that down into small and achievable goals in the here and now that we can work towards in therapy.
03
Therapy
We know you’ve heard this before, but it’s important to know that therapy is a journey. Each team member has a role to play, and our therapists are in it with your family. Regular therapy sessions include a variety of dynamic and effective therapy approaches tailored to your child’s needs. This includes the creation of home programs and parent coaching.
04
Review
Reflecting on what we are working on is an essential part of the process. We rely on parents collaborating with us, and honestly examining every aspect of the supports that are in place for their child in order for us to make changes as needed. We frequently check in on the progress of our specific and measurable therapy goals, and strive to create an opportunity to celebrate all the little milestones on the journey. We think of this step as the pit-stop, and we aren’t afraid to ask for directions if we’ve gotten a little waylaid.
