Post-concussion rehabilitation involves the implementation of various therapeutic treatments and exercises aimed to manage post-concussion signs and symptoms. Treatment can begin at any stage of recovery and aims to optimize quality of life and ensure a safe return to activity.

This appointment is for infants who are having difficulties with feeding. Including but not limited to issues with conditions such as oral ties, reflux, and torticollis. The hour long assessment will include a full health questionnaire, birth history, and physical examination of the infant's including latch, tongue mobility, and motor development.

The initial postpartum visit is for any mom who wishes to get a pelvic health examination following vaginal or cesarean birth. During this initial visit, we require 60-minutes to complete a full assessment of postpartum abdominal wall (diastasis recti assessment), lumbopelvic function, and pelvic floor integrity (external and internal). You will learn a lot during this assessment/treatment: from healing your core, mobilizing your scar (perineal or c-section), gently rehabilitating the muscles connected to your pelvic floor, and more... Clearance from GP/OB isn't mandatory but could be recommended depending on if there were any complications during birth or during the early recovery process. Any signs of infections of the abdomen or vaginal area will prevent any physical intervention. We highly recommend that women follow-up with their doctors first, if they believe that they may have an active infection or medical complication occurring.

**For babies under 5 months at time of session** This group was created to assist parents and caregivers in supporting their little ones in their early motor skill development. During each class, led by a physiotherapist working in paediatrics, the group will be lead through a variety of floor positions and activities to support gross motor development. Over the course of 4 weeks, a variety of educational topics will be covered including anticipated timelines for motor skills, avoiding plagiocephaly + torticollis, infant container use & more! Join us as we get babies moving, while having fun along the way. All group classes will be held at Silver Birch Place on Tuesdays at 3pm in the month of June. Please note that your baby will require an initial assessment with Tessa prior to the class beginning to ensure the class is suitable for their current stage of development (unless they have recently been assessed by a Physiotherapist at AP&PP)

The initial assessment visit include a full health questionnaire, birth history, complete physical examination and observation/scoring of pediatric objective measurement tools. The initial visit can often be intimidating for little ones and that's why the parent will be asked to participate and play with their infant/child during the initial visit. The collaboration of parents is very helpful as little ones can be shy or even scared of strangers or therapists.
