How we can help

No matter where you’re at on your therapy journey, we offer a range of services, programs and evidenced-based therapies to realise your goals.

Please note, available services and programs vary between clinics, so please check with your local clinic about their therapy services.

Programs

As part of your therapy journey your therapist we may recommend some specific therapy programs to assist in achieving your goals including:

Camp Jimbelung is a therapeutic day camp for children aged between five and 12 years providing children with a typical camp experience with additional specialised support to develop skills in areas of challenge.

In Pilates we can work on our core strength to ensure our trunk is nice and strong. This helps support our posture, our global movement, and our gross motor skills.

Children who find themselves getting tired and slumping in their seats at school often have poor core endurance which can be improved with fun Pilates exercises like planks and bridges. We also work on nervous system regulation with breathing exercises.

When working with children we use a family-centered model, supporting caregivers and children to develop skills, knowledge and understanding as we all work together.

Our early intervention program is guided by the Early Start Denver Model.

Run during the school holidays these programs and camps are a great way to boost your child’s therapy participation and meet others.
