Pediatric Sports Injuries
Encouraging children to participate in sports does so much to improve overall physical fitness, coordination, and teamwork skills. However, due to the fact they are still growing, they are more susceptible to experiencing a sports-related injury than adults. While sudden acute injuries like strains, sprains, and broken bones are painful, overuse injuries can result in impaired growth and potential long-term health problems.
Thankfully, many pediatric sports injuries can be prevented by taking the proper precautions, such as ensuring good physical condition, using proper equipment, practicing safe form, warming up, and avoiding playing if very tired or already in pain. For those injuries that still occur despite best practices, Advanced Training and Rehab is here to help. We will ensure your young athletes receive the highest quality physical therapy care to get them back to their favorite sports and activities quickly and safely.
