Paediatric and neurological physio Lorna from physiosonline.co.uk talks about developmental building blocks.
The most important point that Lorna wants to get across in relation to children’s development is:
"It's about HOW they do it, not WHEN they do it"
We discuss
- “tummy time” and the different ways to do it
- the importance of moving between positions, rather than being “placed” for example in sitting -bottom-shuffling and crawling
- the possible downsides of modern baby “equipment”
- how she has found video consultations can empower parents, possibly even more so than in-clinic appointments with babies
Lorna talks about how she has been helping a baby girl to optimise her physical function following a neonatal stroke, and the advantages of video consultations in this situation.
