Supporting children and teens through growth, activity and injury

Children and adolescents are often more susceptible to injury, particularly during periods of rapid growth and increased sporting load. Contributing factors may include changes in strength and flexibility, training load, technique, and warm-up routines.

If required, we may recommend further imaging or referral to a GP or sports medicine doctor to support ongoing care and management.

We also work with young people and their families to identify possible contributing factors to injury and provide guidance on strategies that may help reduce the risk of recurrence and support safe return to activity.

If you’re unsure whether it’s a growth-related change or an injury, we’re here to assess and guide you.

SHOCK WAVE THERAPY
Shock Wave Therapy is a modern, non-invasive treatment that reduces tissue pain and lets you get on with life sooner. Also known as extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), Shock Wave Therapy involves delivering shock waves to specific areas of the body to help promote healing of various musculoskeletal conditions, including plantar fasciitis, tendon pain and sore muscles.

The shock waves used in ESWT are high-energy sound waves that are delivered to the affected area using a specialised device. These waves help stimulate the body's natural healing processes, increase blood flow to the injured area and reduce pain.
