The benefits of exercise, at any level, for your physical and mental health are so important – so don’t let an injury derail your hard work.
Young people tend to recover from injury quickly and may feel that they’re indestructible, but care should be taken to develop good exercise habits.
We can all remember falling off a bike or getting a rugby or football injury and recovering quickly at the time, but the damage may return to haunt us as we get older.
Young people and teens are especially vulnerable because they are developing strong muscles on an immature skeletal system, which can result in excessive strain on the muscles and joints.
Our osteopaths can help get them on the right track and encourage them to adopt good exercise habits, early on in life. Looking after young sportspeople is an investment in their future health and ability to continue to enjoy sports long in the future.
