PHYSIOTHERAPIST, NDT BOBATH THERAPIST, OCCUPATIONAL THERAPIST, SENSORY INTEGRATION THERAPIST

For over 20 years, she has been passionately and dedicatedly working with infants and young children, specializing in the NDT Bobath method, a method she holds particularly dear, as she confidently observes its effectiveness in improving children's motor skills and overall development. Her professional experience includes working in early intervention centers and rehabilitation clinics, which has allowed her to gain extensive knowledge of the individual needs of young patients. In 2001, she completed her Master's degree in Physiotherapy at the University of Physical Education in Krakow, graduating with distinction. Her master's thesis and publications focused on gait analysis (Vicon system) in children with cerebral palsy. In 2015, she passed the state examination confirming qualifications as an occupational therapist and is currently pursuing a first-cycle degree in Occupational Therapy at the University of Physical Education in Krakow.

In her work, she continually expands her therapeutic skills, introducing modern methods and techniques that support children's development at every stage of therapy. In addition to NDT Bobath therapy, she also utilizes soft tissue techniques, sensory integration, kinesiology taping, and utilizes appropriate orthopedic equipment and other therapeutic aids, which she adapts to the individual needs of the child.

She approaches each therapy holistically, considering both the needs of the child and their family. Her approach is based on close collaboration with parents, given their crucial role in the rehabilitation process. She emphasizes the importance of ensuring that therapy is not only effective but also brings joy and satisfaction. Therefore, she places great emphasis on creating an atmosphere in which children can play and learn, while simultaneously consolidating the therapeutic effects.

Her extensive parenting experience also allows her to better understand the emotions and needs of parents of children with various challenges. This allows her to approach every situation with greater empathy, offering support not only to children but also to their families during difficult times.
