What Is Paediatric MSK Physiotherapy?
Musculoskeletal injuries involve the muscles, bones, joints, ligaments, and tendons. In children and teenagers, these can occur due to physical activity, growth spurts, or biomechanical factors. At RVCP, we treat a wide range of paediatric MSK conditions, including:
-
Sprains, strains, and soft tissue injuries
-
Fractures and joint dislocations
-
Sever’s disease and Osgood-Schlatter disease
-
Tendonitis and overuse injuries
-
Postural or gait abnormalities
-
Sports injuries and repetitive strain
Our goal is to return your child to sport or everyday activities stronger, more confident, and with strategies to prevent recurrence. We also collaborate with families and schools to support long-term physical resilience.

Our Child-Friendly Rehabilitation Approach
Every child begins with a detailed initial assessment, where we assess injury type, severity, functional limitations, and individual goals. From there, we develop a bespoke plan tailored to your child’s age, development stage, and personal circumstances.
Treatment techniques may include:
-
Gentle manual therapy to restore movement
-
Strength and conditioning exercises
-
Stretching and flexibility work
-
Balance and proprioceptive training
-
Movement re-education to correct poor habits
-
Pain management techniques
-
Return-to-sport or activity-specific programmes
Each rehab session is engaging, supportive, and guided by our experienced MSK physiotherapist in Skipton.

Education & Long-Term Injury Prevention
Rehabilitation doesn’t stop when symptoms resolve. We educate children and parents on how to stay strong and injury-free long-term, with advice on posture, movement, and activity. Whether it’s teaching warm-up routines or correcting form, we equip families with tools to support confident movement and body awareness.
Our resources, including the Gross Motor Milestones Checklist, can also support early detection of movement issues.
Clinic & Community-Based Care
We provide MSK physiotherapy at our fully equipped Skipton MSK clinic, with options for home, school, and intensive therapy delivery where needed.
Our flexible delivery model ensures children receive the care they need, when and where it’s most convenient.
