Teen Physiotherapy Services

Eric St Physiotherapy is proud to be entrusted with the health and bodies of many local families and their children; it is a responsibility that we do not take lightly. 

​

We are very mindful that each child is an individual, not a condition, and every approach considers the individual’s goals, body and personality for optimum results.

​

Adolescence is a phase of rapid change, physically, socially and mentally, and we believe that teenagers should be given the best possible tools to manage these changes.

​

Education on self-management, fostering a healthy body image based upon function not form and exposure to different movement modalities can help to breed independence and gives adolescents a sense of control over their own bodies. School-based sport is an amazingly effective tool for building the foundation for a healthy and active life. It is also where adolescents concentrate most of their exercise often accompanied by quite demanding training and study loads.

​

The early identification of injuries accompanied by effective treatment and movement education can provide lifelong benefits and skills to young athletes and help to prevent chronic injury.

​

Within our patient-centred model of care, our physiotherapists are willing to go the extra mile and take on a central role, referring and coordinating between various health professions as required, giving parents an informed point of contact and ensuring that they are not left with a sense of frustration or neglect.
