Kirsteen Grieve is a Specialist Independent Paediatric Physiotherapist with extensive experience in developmental paediatrics. After 14 years working within both the NHS as well as the third sector both in the UK and New Zealand, Kirsteen founded her private practice – Movement Physiotherapy – in 2012. She has continued to develop her clinical skills in line with new and advancing clinical techniques to provide modern and innovative approaches to managing the wide-ranging needs of the children she works with. Kirsteen runs sessions from her homely and welcoming space ‘The Bothy’ just outside Linlithgow and provides both regular and intensive physiotherapy sessions to children and their families from all over Scotland and beyond! The aim with each family is to push the boundaries to discover what is possible!
Kirsteen’s session will cover typical development of a child with Down’s Syndrome and give practical ideas and suggestions on how to address some of the common physical challenges that these children face. The session will be very interactive and will provide demonstrations of how to self-assess and evaluate your child at home, know when to seek additional help, and tips on how to progress gross motor skills. Questions are welcome in advance and during/after the session.
