At NAPA Centre, we offer world renowned paediatric therapy services that embrace each child's differences and work with them to overcome their unique challenges. Our allied health professionals develop individualised intensive therapy programs with unique combinations of our wide range of speech, physical, occupational and other innovative therapies.
