Pediatric Sports Biomechanics

Pediatric Sports Biomechanics is the study of how children move during sports and physical activities. It examines the mechanics of their movements, like running, jumping, and throwing, to understand how their bodies develop and respond to stress. By analyzing these movements, specialists can identify potential risks for injuries and improve performance. This field is crucial in pediatric sports medicine, as it helps ensure young athletes can participate safely while supporting their growth and development. Ultimately, it aims to promote healthy, active lifestyles for children while minimizing injury risks.
