Hydrotherapy is a recreational therapy that uses water-based exercises to help improve a person’s physical function and wellbeing. Hydrotherapy is a recognised and valuable method for treating individuals with cerebral palsy and is commonly used as a method of rehabilitation.
Electrical stimulation may lead to increases in muscle strength and motor function. Electrical stimulation is provided by Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) Unit which is portable, non-invasive and can be used in the clinic or at home by a therapist or parent.
Strength and conditioning aims to stimulate and re-activate the musculoskeletal system, strength develop, and re-educate children in gross and fine motor skills, developing a greater understanding of movement problems and finding appropriate solutions.
Whole-body vibration is a therapeutic practice where an individual stands, sits, or lies on a machine with a vibrating platform, transmitting vibration frequencies to the body, eliciting muscle contractions by stimulating muscle spindles and motor neurons.
Sport therapy support utilises sports and exercise principles and advanced therapy techniques, to optimally develop physical qualities in children with cerebral palsy, with the aim of progressing the child’s overall physical capacity.
Sports massage treatment has many proven benefits for children with cerebral palsy or associated neurological conditions. Sport Massage therapy treatment enhances the strength and conditioning provision, working synergistically towards a more functional movement solution.
Working synergistically in-line with our face-to-face clinic-based therapies, we are now complementing our intensive clinic-based courses with additional support in the form of online strength programming with an allocated Point of Contact Coach (PoCC).
