Kids Aren’t Little Adults: Rethinking Pediatric Manual Therapy with Ginny Henderson


Listen Later

Pediatric manual therapy has been built on adult techniques — and that’s a problem.


Educator, clinician, and researcher Ginny Henderson joins us to expose the missing guidelines, the hidden dangers, and the new evidence-based techniques designed specifically for growing bodies.


We cover:

• Why kids’ bones are more vulnerable — and how to mobilize safely

• The biggest misconceptions clinicians bring from adult PT

• Combining joint mechanics with motor learning for better outcomes

• How chronic pain presents differently in children

• The powerful (and often overlooked) influence of parent beliefs

• When pain is nociceptive… and when it’s actually nociplastic

• How PTs can start making better decisions tomorrow with pediatric patients
