Personalised physiotherapy
for adolescents and teenager

At Physix, we understand the importance of addressing injuries in adolescents and teenagers promptly, to prevent long-term consequences and promote optimal future health. While some injuries may seem insignificant at first, they can potentially have debilitating effects if left untreated or improperly managed. That’s why early diagnosis and intervention is crucial.

Whatever the injury or issue for your adolescent or teenager, we carry out a comprehensive assessment, during which we will ask you and your child about their injury, their pain, movement restrictions and normal daily activities. We also closely reference any consultant or imaging reports and carry out a number of observations and tests to evaluate your child’s flexibility, muscle length, range of movement, load tolerance, postural alignment, foot function and any muscular imbalances.

We then design a targeted, personalised and engaging rehabilitation plan to restore strength and movement, reduce pain and get your child back to their favourite activities as soon as possible. Treatment options may include exercise, stretching or hands-on physiotherapy.

Other conditions we treat

Some of the other common conditions we treat for adolescents and teenagers include:

Growth pain

Many adolescents and teenagers experience discomfort from growing pains. Our targeted, personalised treatment plans help to alleviate the discomfort caused by growth spurts, including problems such as Osgood-Schlatter and Sever’s

Musculoskeletal conditions

Our qualified physiotherapy team treats adolescents and teenagers with a variety of MSK conditions including back pain, sprains, strains, scoliosis, shoulder problems and limb complaints.

Workload

Sometimes adolescents overload their bodies, for example by spending hours playing sport. If their body can’t cope it responds, often with pain. Some adolescents ‘under-do’ it, which can also create pain. We help your adolescent find balance and make their body happy!

Thank you Ryan for all of your expertise, I don't think that I would have recovered this quickly without your guidance and knowledge.

The best there is. Nick Allen is my physio and he excels in every area. There is nothing he doesn't know about supporting recovery. I snapped a leg muscle and came to Nick hobbling and worried I'd never play sports again. Nick has taken me on a journey of recovery and I'm now at a stage where I'm running and enjoying my life again. Exercises I've been given have been adapted to my needs. The level of detail Nick can go into about my injury, why I couldn't do certain activities, how my muscles worked and through it all, has taught me alot about how my body works. His experience performing physio in multiple sports and at all levels also gives him a great ability to know how hard he can push my recovery. Physix and Nick will be the people I use in the long run. I can't recommend Physix and Nick highly enough.

I saw Nick after having a total hip replacement. My aim was to get my strength back, walk correctly and build muscle. The care received was excellent. Nick is a great personable guy. He designed a personal programme after an initial assessment to align with my goals. i have made a full recovery and now walk properly and continue to build muscle and fitness. I would highly recommend Nick for all things physio, especially rehabilitation.

From the outset my experiences with the team at Physix have been stellar. Nick quickly identified exactly what was needed to get my knee back into full operation again, and allow me to compete at my beloved squash. Throughout our sessions his knowledge and patient approach were second to none, and he constantly encouraged me to challenge myself further. As a result of his tailored methods and insights, my healing has not only been rapid but the whole experience has inspired me to get fit and strengthen the rest of my body too. As a result I feel 20 years younger in just a matter of months and my life has completely changed. I can’t recommend Physix highly enough.

First time with Louise, who I saw with a shoulder injury. She made me feel at ease and went into a lot of detail and certainly put across she knew what she was talking about. She spent the time listening to me without me feeling like I was being rushed. Excellent result and no hesitation in recommending her.

I would heavily recommend Nick to anyone. Nick helped me diagnose a problem that was stopping me running. He helped me navigate which medical procedure would be best and was ready to support recovery at the right time. There were two major things that I loved about Nick’s style. The first was that he makes it measurable so you can see progress. The second is that he tailors the recovery work to your favourite type of exercise so it doesn’t just feel like more stretches. I rapidly recovered from an operation with his support and was able to run more than I ever had. I was even able to fulfil my dream and run my first marathon with Nick’s advice. Thanks Nick.
