We contacted Nydes when our daughter was born with arthrogryposis, a congenital condition that restricts movement in the joints. She is affected in her hands and her legs. We started physiotherapy when she was only 2 or 3 weeks old and from the start we were very pleased with Nydes' work. He has provided a comprehensive programme of stretching and exercises designed to both maximise her range of motion in her affected joints and also prepare her for the relevant next stage of development (e.g. Rolling over, grasping etc).
We have been particularly impressed by Nydes' work to improve the range of motion in the hands, which had already had a great impact. We have also greatly appreciated his work on the emotional side. He is personable, flexible and approachable, and he has a calm and gentle manner with our daughter. She is never agitated during physiotherapy sessions, which is no mean feat when dealing with a newborn!
