Dr. Lindsay is joined by physiotherapists Sarah Park and Mary Mitton from Alta Physiotherapy to discuss stress injuries. They cover identifying and preventing repetitive strain injuries in kids, teens, and even adults. Sarah and Mary provide insight into some of the most common causes of repetitive stress injuries, like poor posture, overuse, and of course a lack of variety in movement - both for the everyday motions of our lives, and in the sports our littles love to play. They also share strategies for recognizing early warning signs, the importance of multimodal movement, and tips for families to incorporate simple, effective habits into their daily routines to minimize injury risk.
