Video Summary
Ross Nakaji, an athletic trainer, discusses the rehabilitation of a 16-year-old gymnast with a navicular stress fracture. Despite its high risk, the athlete completed a rehab program in 7-8 weeks using bone stimulators and activity modifications. The focus was on progressive loading exercises and monitoring symptoms, with activities like bone elevations, proprioceptive training, and balance work. Strength and flexibility were emphasized, advancing from basic movements to more dynamic tasks like squats, balance challenges, and simulated running. The goal was to enhance stability, proprioception, and strength while adapting exercises to prevent further injury.
