Elements of Paediatric Physiotherapy Pamela Eckersley
This text, providing both theoretical and the practical information, is aimed primarily at student physiotherapists and physiotherapists who are beginning a paediatric placement; physiotherapists who have entered the specialism of paediatrics; and physiotherapy teachers and course tutors. It is also hoped that teachers, nurses, and parents will find the book a useful introduction to the field. Approaches to therapy intervention are presented separately from the problems and disorders of childhood. This is to encourage development of treatment strategies related to the particular needs and skills of the child, rather than to the condition the child is experiencing.
