Hi all a bit random and please talk me down if needed but I feel although the NHS is brilliant at providing free care to everyone I'm wondering if taking my dd to a physio even though it don't see any problems with her I feel as though prevention is better than a cure and want to avoid injuries and find any weakness that can be helped with specific exercises than her get an injury or weakness down the line and have to beg for a referral to a specialist from my gp then wait months for that to come through.
It just seems in the u.s that you guys are always at the ortho or physio with your gymmies with issues that just wouldn't get seen to over here I'm more than willing to pay privately for this of course but was just wondering if I'm being nuts please tell me if I am lol
I was also going to do the same with a dietician just to ensure she's getting the right stuff in the right amount again even though she's classed as underweight and small for her age the doctor wasn't concerned and I'm not either but I would much rather ensure she's the healthiest she can be than wait by no means is she going to the Olympics but I want her to be able to continue to be active when she's done with gym and not plagued by injuries or problems that could have been avoided thanks all
