NDT Bobath Baby is a therapeutic concept applied to premature babies and infants and children with neurological disorders. Due to the non-invasive nature of the therapy, it can be applied from the first days of life. It has the best therapeutic effects in the first months of a baby’s life. In NDT Bobath Baby, the therapist focuses not only on exercises, a lot of emphasis is placed on nursing and the correct execution of these exercises – the way the baby is lifted and carried, fed, changed and positioned during play and rest.
