Musculoskeletal disorders
We are a team of gurus in paediatric neurological disorders and do not condone or recommend cross-trained or ‘general’ paediatric physiotherapy practice. We only treat musculoskeletal conditions which are a secondary result of a neurological disorder.

Secondary musculoskeletal conditions

●      Scoliosis as a result of a syndrome or cerebral palsy

●      Joint contractures due to high muscle tone

●      Reduced range of movement or flexibility, as a result of high muscle tone

●      Pre- or post-operative superheroes, after orthopaedic surgery due to a neurological condition, for example hip migration surgery in cerebral palsy

●      Joint pain due to a neurological condition

●      Pre- or post-interventions such as Botox or serial casting, due to high muscle tone from a neurological condition

●      SDR surgery as a result of spasticity

Non-neurological disorders
Paediatric physiotherapy is a small world! Team Bumble Bee Physio know many children’s physiotherapists around London, Hampshire and some parts of the UK, who specialise in different conditions. If your child suffers from a non-neurological condition, please do not hesitate to contact us, and we will try our best to find someone reputable and experienced to help.
