Plexxus
Child Physiotherapy in Voorschoten
Does your child have difficulty with movement, motor development, posture, writing or sports? At Plexxus Child Physiotherapy, we help babies, children and teenagers develop their movement skills and participate more confidently in everyday activities.
Every child develops in their own way. That is why our guidance is always tailored to your child’s age, abilities and individual needs.
How can we help your child?
You can contact us if you have questions or concerns about your child’s movement or physical development. We provide assessment, treatment and practical advice for, among other things:
- delayed motor development;
- difficulties with rolling, sitting, crawling or walking;
- a preferred head position or postural asymmetry in babies;
- problems with balance, coordination or frequent falling;
- difficulty running, jumping, climbing or playing;
- fine motor skills and handwriting difficulties;
- posture-related complaints;
- joint or muscle pain;
- hypermobility;
- growth-related complaints;
- sports injuries and overuse;
- reduced strength or physical fitness;
- fear of movement;
- persistent or medically unexplained physical complaints.
Are you unsure whether child physiotherapy is suitable for your child? Please contact us. We will be happy to discuss your concerns with you.
Support for every stage of development
Babies and toddlers
During the first years of life, children develop many new movement skills. We can help when your baby has a preferred head position, frequently arches backwards or experiences difficulty learning to roll, sit, crawl or walk.
We observe how your child moves and provide exercises and practical advice that can easily be incorporated into your daily routine.
Preschool children
Young children learn through play and movement. We support children who find skills such as balancing, climbing, jumping, running or catching a ball more difficult.
Treatment is playful and adapted to your child’s interests, helping them build both movement skills and confidence.
Primary-school children
At school, during play and in sports, increasingly complex motor skills are required. We help children with coordination, strength, balance, posture, handwriting and fine motor skills.
Our aim is to help your child participate as independently and confidently as possible at school, at home and during sports or leisure activities.
Teenagers and young people
Teenagers may experience pain, injuries or physical limitations related to growth, posture, sports or overuse. We help young people understand their symptoms, regain strength and return safely to their daily activities or sport.
What can you expect?
Intake and assessment
During the first appointment, we discuss your questions and concerns. We observe and assess your child’s movement and, where appropriate, use age-appropriate motor tests.
We then explain our findings and discuss whether treatment or advice is needed.
A personalised treatment plan
Together, we set achievable goals that are meaningful to your child. Treatment may focus on mobility, coordination, balance, strength, endurance, fine motor skills or confidence in movement.
Exercises are offered in an age-appropriate and engaging way. Where possible, we connect them to activities your child enjoys.
Practical support for parents
Parents play an important role in the treatment process. We clearly explain what we are doing and show you how you can support your child at home.
If helpful, and always in consultation with you, we can also coordinate with your child’s school, GP, paediatrician or another healthcare professional.
Referral and health insurance
In most cases, you can make an appointment with a physiotherapist without a referral from your GP. For certain conditions or insurance reimbursements, a referral may be required.
In the Netherlands, children under the age of 18 are generally entitled to reimbursement for the first nine physiotherapy treatments under the basic health insurance. If further treatment is medically necessary, up to nine additional treatments may be reimbursed. Different rules may apply to certain chronic conditions.
Coverage can depend on your child’s condition, your insurance policy and the healthcare provider selected. We therefore recommend checking the conditions with your health insurer.
