Moira Henrich is an experienced paediatric physiotherapist with more than 20 years’ experience supporting babies, children and families.
She began her paediatric physiotherapy career at the Royal Children’s Hospital Melbourne in 2004, where she gained broad experience across orthopaedics, neurology, neurosurgery, cardiothoracics, respiratory medicine and paediatric rehabilitation.
Since then, Moira has worked across hospital, outpatient, school, private practice and community settings in Australia, the United Kingdom and the United States. Her experience includes working with infants and young children with developmental delay, cerebral palsy, genetic conditions, plagiocephaly, torticollis, Developmental Dysplasia of the Hip and postural variations such as intoeing gait, flat feet and toe walking.
Moira has a special interest in early assessment and intervention. She has completed Advanced Training in Prechtl’s General Movements Assessment, an internationally recognised assessment used in early infancy to evaluate neurological function and identify babies who may be at higher risk of developmental conditions such as cerebral palsy.
As a mother of two young children, Moira understands the realities of family life. Her approach is practical, calm and family-centred, with therapy programs designed to fit into everyday routines rather than add more pressure to already-busy households.
Moira is committed to evidence-based paediatric physiotherapy and ongoing professional development, helping families receive clear guidance, thoughtful support and care that reflects current best practice.
