When people think of epilepsy, they often imagine dramatic shaking.

โข Brief staring spells
โข Repetitive movements like blinking or lip smacking
โข Sudden drops or loss of tone
โข Moments that seem like daydreaming
Because of this, seizures are sometimes missed or misunderstood as behaviour.
For parents, this can be confusing and frightening.
But recognising these subtle signs early can make a meaningful difference in getting the right support.
At WINGS, we work with children with a range of neurological conditions, including epilepsy, where movement, coordination, and development can be affected over time. In fact, almost 70% of our patients have epilepsy or incidents of seizures.
While seizures are medical in nature, therapy plays an important role in supporting what comes after; helping children build strength, control, and independence in their daily lives.
Children with seizures who might face developmental delays can absolutely get the physiotherapy they need to gain functional movement, and lead meaningful lives.
If something doesnโt feel quite right, trust your instincts.
Make sure to document any behaviours that are out of place, and seek neurological screening for clarity and next steps.
You know your child best! ๐
