Supporting Children to Move, Play & Thrive

At Trend Physio, we provide specialised paediatric physiotherapy in East Gosford, supporting children and families across the Central Coast.

Childhood is a time of rapid physical growth and development. When movement challenges arise, early physiotherapy support can help children build strength, coordination and confidence.

Our approach is evidence-based, play-focused and tailored to each child’s individual needs.

Who We Work With

Our paediatric physiotherapy services support children aged approximately 3 years and older, including preschool and school-aged children.

We commonly help children with:

  • Gross motor delays

  • Coordination difficulties (DCD)

  • Hypermobility

  • Low muscle tone

  • Balance and stability issues

  • Toe walking

  • Sporting injuries

  • Developmental delays

  • Neurological conditions

  • Disability and complex needs

If your child struggles with running, jumping, climbing, keeping up with peers, or participating confidently in sport or play, physiotherapy can help.

Supporting School-Aged Children

As children grow, movement demands increase.

We frequently support:

  • Children who fatigue easily

  • Children who struggle with playground activities

  • Children who avoid sport due to confidence

  • Children experiencing pain with activity

  • Children with hypermobility-related symptoms

  • Children needing support with motor planning

Building strength and motor skills early helps reduce injury risk and improve long-term physical confidence.

  • Detailed developmental and medical history
