Guidelines for physical activity for people with childhood-onset disabilities are similar to those for the general population but the barriers to participation are far greater. A number of studies have been done in Australia in recent years, trialling different approaches to increasing physical activity, especially in children.
In this episode, Prue Morgan, Carlee Holmes and Rachel Kennedy look at some of the barriers to children and adults living with disability engaging in physical activity and how physios can help to overcome these barriers.
Recorded at APASC25 in Adelaide, October 23-25.
