 Gymnastics places some fairly unique demands on fairly young bodies. In episode 26 of the Physio Edge podcast, I discuss these demands with Kingsley Gibson, a Sports Titled Physiotherapist that has worked with Australian Diving, Synchronised Swimming, Shooting and Hockey teams at a number of Commonwealth and Olympic games, and works with elite gymnasts on a daily basis. For his services to gymnastics, in 2000 the Commonwealth awarded Kingsley with a Sports Services Medal. So Kingsley has a lot of experience to draw on, and we got into detail on a number of topics.  In this podcast we discuss:   Common injury patterns in the various gymnastic disciplines  Important factors to consider when returning gymnasts to training and competition  Factors that can influence your gymnasts treatment outcome  Communication with parents and coaches  How to best implement load management strategies  Various motor control patterns in gymnasts that contribute to injuries  Screening gymnasts  Designing specific upper limb rehab programs  Lower limb and lumbar spine rehab programs  Management of acute vs chronic injuries  Stress reactions in the Lumbar spine  Apophyseal injuries - hip flexors, hamstrings, calcaneus (Sever’s) and Osgood-Schlatter’s  Management of apophyseal injuries compared to tendinopathy  Motor control/“stability” patterns in gymnasts  When to order imaging  Growth plate injury management - particularly in the wrist  The effect of other factors such as training surfaces and equipment on injury   Links of Interest   Become incredibly flexible by subscribing to the Physio Edge podcast or giving it a review on iTunes   Kingsley Gibson Sydney Sports Medicine Centre at Homebush  Sydney Wests Sports Medicine at Rooty Hill  Clinical Edge   Available online education with Clinical Edge
