We'll explain everything at the first session.","otazka_2":"How often do you exercise?","odpoved_2":"Usually several times a day at home, according to the physiotherapist's instructions. We set the frequency individually.","otazka_3":"From what age can you start?","odpoved_3":"From the newborn period, if the child's condition requires it.
