Advice, research and physiotherapy tailored to your needs
Based on a targeted question and a substantiated investigation, we work together to develop an individual trajectory, always at the child's pace of course. The duration of a trajectory depends on your question. Because we want to promote communication between care providers, we work very closely with your doctor, therapist, school or CLB.
