Parents and Caregivers:
Physiotherapy is only one small piece of a greater puzzle of treatments and practices that facilitate your child's progress. Home programming is another piece, and the follow-through of therapeutic practices in the family environment plays an essential role in your child's progress. Ideas of exercises and activities will be demonstrated and if possible given in handouts to make it as convenient as possible.
Your Therapy Hour:
Your therapist has 60 minutes set aside for your child. Approximately 50 minutes are for treatment. The last 10 minutes are used to discuss current issues relating to your child and to collaborate with you. I appreciate feedback about how your child is responding to therapy, and welcome any questions or concerns you may have. Please arrive on time for therapy. If you are late there won’t be time to make up for the lost time.
Cancellations:
Please make every effort to inform me of a cancellation at least 24 hours before your appointment. I appreciate your effort but do understand that this is not always possible in case of sudden illness of your child. You will be charged for late cancellation.
Attendance
Consistency of treatment is very necessary for progress. If your child is absent more than twice in one month, for reasons other than illness or being out of town, you do risk losing your regular timeslot.
