Football, basketball, hockey, soccer, wrestling, gymnastics, or just an ambitious afternoon on the trampoline — active childhoods come with sprains, strains, and spills. The body will heal the tissue, but often it doesn’t heal completely, and an injury that’s only 90% resolved becomes the weak link that keeps getting re-injured.
Dr. Badinger obtained certification in Sports Injury care. For young athletes, that means a careful assessment of the injury and the mechanics around it. For example, a twisted ankle changes how a kid runs, and how a kid runs changes what happens to their knees, hips, and spine.
Care plans for young athletes combine specific adjustments modified to each child with rehabilitative exercise, with one goal: a full recovery that lets them get back to the sport they love — stronger and more balanced than before the injury.
