Upsee Assessment Kit

Upsee assessment kit
Posted 06/05/18

We're really excited at Bristol Neurophysio to be working with Firefly and to now be able to offer assessments with one of their fantastic products, the Upsee.

The Upsee is an upright mobility device designed to give children with disabilities the opportunity to experience standing and walking with the help of a parent, therapist or carer.  This can enable them to do things they've never been able to do before such as holding hands with a best friend or standing to hug a brother or sister.

If you'd like to know more about this or would like to arrange for an assessment with the Upsee then please do get in touch.

 

 

Some kind words

Our daughter’s renal failure means that she is delayed with standing and walking at 2 and half years of age. We first started seeing Jules a few months back for an intense block of physiotherapy to build the strength and skills needed for her to eventually stand and walk.  It was really important that the physiotherapist specialised in paediatrics and could work alongside the NHS physiotherapists we also see. Jules immediately put us at ease with her friendly and professional approach and has built a good, trusting relationship with our daughter.  She uses play as a way to get our daughter to engage with the therapy.  Our daughter has really enjoyed all her physio sessions to date and we have seen a notable improvement in her movement.  She has begun to pull herself up and can climb up small steps as well as shuffle down stairs in a controlled manner!
