EXPERIENCED THERAPISTS FOR CHILDREN

Through our clinic at Tanglin Trust International School.

Across all of our clinics, we see many children as young as four with orthopaedic conditions such as Osgood Schlatter’s Sever’s, and a range of developmental issues and growing pains. We can assist with injury recovery and also students with high-performance goals, including personal programs for high-level athletes looking to win sporting scholarships to Universities. We work closely with doctors, podiatrists, surgeons and specialists to ensure optimal care for the young patient.
