Paediatric Physiotherapy

By Hosana Quinderé

The book brings a playful approach as a primordial point in pediatric physiotherapeutic treatment, which seeks subsidies in the fields of psychology and pedagogy, so that from these perspectives the professionals in question can add playfulness to their treatments for children and adolescents. Since in this perspective the child is motivated to participate effectively in therapy. This interventionist study enables physiotherapy students to practice the art of playing in their treatments, using play as a therapeutic resource. Thus, the instrument of playing is not seen as a form of subordination or reward for the child in therapy, after all, playing is considered as a prerequisite for healthy development, besides enabling a communication link between therapist and patient. For pediatric physiotherapy, there is still immeasurable need for research on this topic, as well as transfer of information / training for physiotherapists. However, this subject holds a valuable therapy, standing out as promising and innovative for clinical applicability.
