Paediatrics: Gross Motor Delay
What to Expect When You Visit Our Physiotherapist
When you bring your child to us for gross motor delay, our physiotherapist will assess age-appropriate skills such as tummy time, rolling, sitting, crawling, standing, walking, balance, coordination, strength, and movement confidence. Treatment is play-based and may include strengthening activities, balance games, postural control training, parent education, and home activities that fit into daily routines. Our goal is to help your child build confidence and progress toward their motor milestones in a supportive, family-friendly way.

How Does the Treatment Work? ⓘ
Manual Therapy Supports positioning, comfort and movement preparation where needed.
Exercise Rehab Play-based strengthening builds motor skills and confidence.
Sustained Relief (%)
3 / 6 / 12 monthsFactors Influencing Recovery Speed
↑
Early Intervention
• Earlier support can build age-appropriate movement habits. • Parent-led daily practice makes therapy more effective.
Play-Based Strengthening
• Tummy time, balance games and movement play support milestones. • Consistent routines help children practise without pressure.
↓
Limited Floor Time
• Too little active play can reduce movement confidence. • Excessive equipment use may limit natural practice opportunities.
Underlying Development Factors
• Low tone, prematurity or neurological conditions may slow progress. • Missed appointments and inconsistent home practice also reduce gains.
What does the Evidence say?
Research supports task-oriented and activity-based motor interventions for children with motor delays or coordination difficulties, especially when therapy is practical, repetitive, and linked to real-life play activities.
