We are also one of the specialized pediatric physiotherapists in Chennai. Parenthood is bliss and giving birth to a child is more than a phenomenon or experience. It is an eternal bliss. A mother goes through a multitude of emotions and unbearable heights of pain, during the process of childbirth. But doesn’t recognize any pinch or pain, when she sees her newborn child, hale and healthy. The responsibility does not end there for the parents and it is the dream of every parent to see their newborn go through a trouble-free childhood and evolve into a successful being. But not to worry, if any of these positive thoughts are affected by any life-altering conditions for the kid like congenital limb abnormalities, autism spectrum disorders, or genetic muscle disease, among others.

Our expertise in pediatric rehabilitation includes Cerebral palsy rehabilitation, Down’s syndrome rehabilitation, and pediatric speech therapy. Children’s rehabilitation requires great care and caution with an empathetic mind. Our pediatric psychologist in Chennai understands this and is devoted to bringing back the childhood every child deserves.
