Therapy That Helps You & Your Child

We work with children of all ages who have a diagnosis—or suspected diagnosis—of hemiplegic cerebral palsy or similar neurological conditions. We also offer very early intervention, even before a formal diagnosis has been made, as early therapy can have a big impact.

CIMT helps improve the function of one arm by encouraging repeated use during everyday tasks.

Bimanual Therapy helps children use both hands together for coordinated activities like dressing, playing, and eating. In our programs, we often combine both approaches to give children a well-rounded set of skills for daily life.

Get in touch via our contact form or email to arrange a friendly chat. If we agree therapy sounds like a good fit, we’ll arrange an initial assessment and discuss possible dates. We do get busy, especially during school holidays, so it’s best to enquire early.

We like to keep it simple for you. A brief summary of your child’s diagnosis (if there is one), previous therapy, and current challenges is a great starting point. If we feel we need more detail, we’ll suggest a Zoom call before any in-person assessment to make sure we’re on the same page.

Our intensives run over 3 or 4 weeks with daily sessions (5 days per week). Each program will have a combination of CIMT and Bimanual Therapy, delivered through playful, goal-driven activities. We tailor the program to your child’s needs and preferences, and you’ll learn alongside your child so you can continue therapy confidently at home.

We hear this often. Helping Hemi Hands was created specifically for children with hemiplegia, and everything we do is tailored to that. We offer specialist therapy in a fun, child-led environment, and we support you—the parent—every step of the way. Many families tell us they finally feel understood, informed, and empowered to support their child after working with us.
