Understanding youth athletes for MSK physios
Member only interactive webinar
What can members expect to learn?
Kids are not mini adults. They have different anatomy, pathology and rehabilitation needs and yet we don’t learn about any of these aspects at undergraduate level. This webinar will demystify the adolescent, explaining about:
- maturation of the skeleton and how it impacts our diagnosis
- management of growth-related conditions such as Sever’s
- how to diagnose young athlete low back pain
- why energy availability might impact injury risk
- considerations for adolescent return to sport including neurocognitive rehabilitation
with Angela Jackson, Chartered Physiotherapist specialising in youth athletes
