Evaluation and Treatment of the Hip in the Adolescent Athlete (Frizelle - Live Interactive Webinar)

Course overview

Young athletes sustain a significant amount of injuries participating in sports. The unique nature of the adolescent musculoskeletal system requires developing an understanding of the physical/ physiological differences between adolescent and adult athletes. Effective management of these athletes in the rehabilitation setting demands the practitioner understands both how and why these athletes need to be treated differently than adults. This course will help the clinician to develop an understanding of the adolescent musculoskeletal system. It will also address commonly encountered hip injuries in the adolescent athlete, and how to best manage these injuries to help the athlete successfully return to their sport.
