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

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 patientsThis is one of those “I didn’t even know I needed this” conversations — and it might change how you treat kids forever.
