Alex’s Place
is an independent private paediatric physiotherapy practice based in Stafford, UK.
We specialise in early intervention physiotherapy for babies and young children, providing high-quality assessment and individually tailored treatment to support development at the earliest possible stage. Therapy is delivered by Aleksandra Szłapa, MSc (Physiotherapy), an experienced paediatric physiotherapist with broad experience in paediatric neurodevelopment and motor control, and a strong focus on working closely with families.
Alex’s Place offers specialist physiotherapy in a well-equipped, safe and welcoming clinical environment. In addition to regular therapy sessions, intensive therapy blocks may be available in selected cases, subject to clinical suitability and availability.
