The Osgood Schlatter Rehabilitation Program

My 11 year old son has had recurring Osgood pain which really affected his ability to run, play football and ultimate frisbee. We completed the programme and it's made a huge difference - even just the rolling on day 1 helped relieve some of the pain. The daily exercises do need commitment and investment to keep going with but I would highly recommend sticking with it.

This is an outstanding program. I am a PT myself and purchased this program years ago for my daughter who is a soccer player. After completing this program she no longer struggles with pain. She has been playing soccer still into her college years as a division 2 athlete and fortunately denies any Osgood related pain. I myself have used the concepts of this program with my patients and I love it. Thank you for your expertise which has allowed my daughter to continue to play her sport all these years pain free.

This program is fantastic. I bought this for my son who was diagnosed with OSD. He was in so much pain after soccer practice that he was h able to train. At week 3 of no training I found this program and he did the exercises diligently. Every week progressing to less pain. By week 4 of the program he was already back at training and playing 25 min each game. He has now been pain free for about 6 weeks and playing full halves. He does use a knee brace to help support him during training and recovery. Thank you for helping him get back to the sport he loves!

I love this !!!!!!!!!

My 11 year old daughter was struggling with knee pain in both legs and couldn't kick it with rest alone. After 2-3 weeks of the program she was feeling significantly better and after 6-7 weeks she was pain free. The program was easy for her to follow on her own and she's going to continue to do the exercises. I was skeptical about purchasing an online program, but this is the real deal. I would HIGHLY recommend for any young athlete struggling with osgood schlatters.

My son is on week 6 of the programme. He took osgood in his left knee in May and had to cut down his playing and training time. He plays competitive football and his pain rating has gone down from 6 to 0 as the programme has progressed. After starting slowly and building up he has followed the programme consistently and can run much freer and with little or no pain. The excercises have strengthened his quads and calves which in turn has taken some of the load of his knee. The results have been amazing! He is now back to training twice a week and weekend league matches and will continue to use elements of the programme after it is completed as it has helped him so much.

My son had just started experiencing Osgood symptoms after starting a new football season and I was worried he would be sitting out a lot and suffering for a long time like I did as a child. However, when I looked into the program and saw how it logically moves from foam rolling, to strength and flexibility, we decided to give it a try. We are now finishing week 3 of the program and my son's pain is almost gone. It does flare up a bit after his match at the weekend but it is on the mend and I recommend the program fully.

A fantastic program that was easy to follow and my son is now happy that he can play football again without pain.

My Osgood was quite mild, but this programme has been helping me a lot with strengthening my legs, so I know I can start playing without a strap again, and hopefully never have any pain again!

This is the only program that has helped my son with his issues. The detailed instructions and steps are fantastic. He went from constant severe pain to lower pain levels much less often. I highly recommend this program to anyone having issues with Osgood Shlatters.

Great program

When my young athlete went down with severe knee pain I naturally hit the panic button. It the beginning of indoor track season. At that point I had never heard of Osgood Schlatters (OS). Once OS was his diagnosis, I hastened to find a good treatment program. I stumbled upon your program online and it was off to the races (pun intended). After just four weeks he was feeling so good that he tried to rejoin his Winter football team, but reinjured his knee the first practice and he had to return to the beginning of the program. We just finished week seven and he is sprinting without pain, ready for his first outdoor track meet (100 & 200 meters). I would highly recommend this program to anyone who has a young athlete needing to recover from OS. The program deals with strengthening, flexibility, kinetics, as well as load management. It has benefitted us tremendously.

My 10 year old daughter is a figure skater, and had been struggling with OS for 6 months. We made some progress with our physio, but it was really up and down. Once we added the very structured and easy to follow OS program, we saw almost immediate benefit. Having the workbook helped us with accountability and consistency, and as soon as she started to feel less pain, she was hooked. My only regret is hesitating to sign up.

My 13 year old son played a basketball comp in January and could hardly walk. His pain level was at 8 sometimes 9. After two weeks the pain was noticeably halved. And by week 7 he was pain free. In week 6 he played 8 games of basketball over a weekend. Can not recommend this program enough

I’m so glad I discovered this program while researching Osgood. It has significantly helped reduce my 13-year-old daughter's knee pain and restored her confidence to perform at her best. As a very active athlete, she’s also feeling more flexible, which will enhance her agility in sports. We plan to continue with this program alongside other exercises for as long as possible. Thank you to the team—please keep up the amazing work!

Tried this after the doctor said "Just rest." Rested for 2 years and still had pain. Followed this plan diligently; pain free in few months. Had to work on muscle imbalances after all that time limping but now back to running. Thank you for a real solution!

My 14 yr old is now PAIN FREE !! My 14 yr old was in so much pain his orthopedic doc wanted to immobilize his leg !! I am so thankful we found this program. Within a few weeks he had relief from pain. Almost a year later he continues to maintenance roll and continues to have zero pain. So thankful !!!!

I cannot thank this program enough for my 15 year old son that has been battling with this disease for the last 18 plus months. Prior to the program he had brief moments where he would feel some relief from various exercises that he would do daily but often not enough relief to truly assist him with continuing his involvment in his activities. Once he began the program and especially after the first two weeks of the program he immeidately began having more sustainable relief that allowed him to participate more fully in his competitive athletic activities. He not only had pain relief but no pain to very little pain at all when workloads were within reason. He also regained his happiness and belief that this too would get better with the help of this program. As he stated yesterday I am so thankful for the program and will continue to maximize their exercises.

Amazing program who helped my son be pain free within a couple of weeks. Before that he was having trouble even walking.

Outstanding results! Just started week 5 and my 14yo son is feeling great! Worth every penny!

Excellent program! The rolling and exercises provided my nine old soccer player immediate relief. Although she’s still working through the program and her growing spurt continues she’s functional and much more comfortable. Most importantly she’s learned about body mechanics and that to be a strong athlete it takes more than what you do on the field. We’ve incorporated the program into our lives. Much appreciate the step-by-step instruction and videos that all can follow. Highly recommend the program!

We have been working over the past six weeks on our OS program…. It has been super helpful to understand what is involved and why the rolling and strengthening is so important. Thank you.

My son’s pain went down immediately from the first week of starting the program I highly recommend purchasing.

My 14 year old son had dealt with Osgood for about 18 months before we found this program. He was contemplating quitting some of the sports he loves to play because the pain was too much to deal with. We started the program at the beginning of wrestling season and he was at a 6/10 pain level. Even with a full practice and match schedule he was down to a consistent pain level of 0/10 by week 6. His confidence and overall demeanor has improved dramatically now that he is feeling better and we so excited to see him back to his old self. Thank you for providing this life changing program for young athletes!!

This program works! My son’s OS was so bad that he had trouble walking. Within 3 weeks he was back on the field and after completing the program he was running at full speed and strength.

Hi Jacob Just wanted to let you guys know that after 2 weeks we are so amazed and grateful that we found this program. Maggie has gone from barely being able to run to attending full practices and playing about half time (she could physically play more but is easing back in) in her games. She is even running in a track meet on Saturday! She has been really diligent about following the program and I cant get over the difference. The pain 2 weeks ago was probably at a 7-8 (just too intense to play through) and it has reduced to about a 3 or so and getting even better. Looking forward to seeing how her knee continues to improve! Will update again as she wraps it up! Emily'

My 11-year-old daughter was diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatter disease in April. She plays soccer, and the condition was caused by overuse. From the time she first felt pain, she stopped playing and had various treatments, including laser therapy and physical therapy twice a week. Despite all the time and money spent, nothing worked. I decided to buy this program, and it has been wonderful. By the third week her pain had decreased substantially, and she was able to return to practice with limits on duration and frequency. We are now in week six and she is already playing at least half of each match without pain. This program has been a success for my daughter. I am happy, and so is she.

Alles super gut geklappt [Everything went really well.]

I have 2 daughters, 12 and 14. The older has had osgood schlatters for a year or so and the other was diagnosed with osgood schlatters a couple of months ago. Both are very keen runners. We started the programme for both girls at the same time. The older saw almost an immediate end to her pain, after more than a year of her knees hurting every time she ran. Since starting the foam rolling her knees have not hurt at all. The younger, although only having sore knees for a couple of months, took a few weeks to see a reduction in pain. But it has been a huge improvement. We are not out of the woods yet - some flare ups but only when she has upped her training/competed hard too soon. Now we know what to do if she does have one, and in her first race back she recorded a much faster time than previously- we have the strength work to thank for that! She does the daily exercises religiously, and it is hard to commit to that alongside a busy school life. But once she could see it paying off she is happy to do it. So glad to have found this site - much cheaper than seeing a physio every week (although we are still seeing one every few weeks to check she agrees with the plan and its suggestions - she does!).

My daughter is a 12 year old competitive gymnast. She has bilateral Osgood Schlatter, and it have been very difficult to practice. She went from training Level 8 to having to repeat Level 7. She does what she can in the gym while going through the program. I really wish I would have discovered this program earlier so we could have tackled the issue at the beginning instead of waiting for her to have unbearable pain. It took about 5/6 weeks before she felt relief and it isn't at a 0 yet, but tolerable. She wears patellar bands and we KT Tape, but that doesn't always alleviate the pain. She also takes Oscon along with other holistic supplements. She has a Softwave Therapy Treatment plan as well as Ultrasound Therapy, Redlight Therapy and regular chiropractor visits. We will continue to use the program for the next couple years to keep her pain level down so she can continue to compete. I highly recommend doing every step to see results.

Merci pour le programme, juste parfait ! Les vidéos sont très claires, les documents fournis très utiles pour réaliser le suivi. Mon fils a suivi étape par étape le programme et va mieux au bout des 7 semaines. Il va continuer de suivre les exercices jusqu a sa guérison complète et certainement au delà. Supports très professionnels, MERCI

My 11 year old daughter is 5 weeks into the programme after 7 months of Osgood Schlatter pain. After 6 months of physio which greatly helped with pain management we decided to start the Core Advantage programme as we wanted to just try everything. She started this program with pain levels around 5-6 and is now tracking most days around 1 or some days even 0. It's important to note that she has been very meticulous in following the daily exercises sometimes watching the videos to ensure she is doing each one correctly so I think this has been a great help. She didn't enjoy the foam rolling at the start but is now doing it like a pro! Thanks so much for this programme. We are so happy to have stumbled on this online. Looking into the Return to Performance program now!

So far so good! My daughter is 17 years old and plays tennis and volleyball. She has ALWAYS struggled with her knees. It wasn’t until I watched her playing tennis with her basketball playing cousin a few weeks ago that I really realized how much compensating she has to do to avoid bending her knees! It broke my heart! She is 17 years old and plays like a 50 year old protecting their knees. We had given up on trying things over the years because I just didn’t know what else to do! Massages, physical therapists, acupuncture, and lots of ibuprofen have always offered small measures of relief only to be right back at square one again a few days later. I found this program online and we decided to give it a go. Make no mistake, the first week is a test of will for damn sure. I always try everything I ask her to do and I promise you it hurt to put your body weight on that roller the first time. The guy in the video makes it look SO easy. It was awkward, she kept falling off the roller, lots of rug burn on her elbows and knees, and my neck and back were killing me from trying to help her balance and go back and forth, and yes there were tears. Day one of week one lasted about 2 hours! She pushed through (my back pushed through) and by week 2 I’m happy to report she was knocking out her foam rolling like a champ! My elevator pass kid had to run up 3 flights of stairs at school and texted me very excited, “mom, my knees don’t hurt?!??” Today starts week 3 and we’re about to go break down the week 3 videos. To be continued! I absolutely recommend this program if your child is struggling. I recommend 3 things: 1. Commit! Don’t miss any days. 2. Push through. Week one is a beast if you’ve never rolled like this before. 3. Definitely buy the recommended items. The roller and ankle weights work great and I’ll let you know how the knee pad works this week! Thank you for this amazing program. We’re both excited to see what her tennis season will look like in the fall!!!!

The training were painful at the start but we persevered in weeks 3 the stretches were to painful but we introduced it gradually and by the end of week 4 pain disappeared completely and now life is back to Normal. Just follow the training religiously and result guaranteed. So glad I found this program for my 12 year old .

The program is straight-forward ,detailed and it works! Pain and swelling significantly reduced within 3 days and my son was vitrually pain free during routine activities by day 5. My son paused from football and rugby for three weeks just to be conservative but continued diving and swimming. He had to pause during week 5 after suffering a grade 1 hamstring tear. He has continued to repeat week 5 and has already incorporated the Sever's program. He will resume week 6 this week as it has been 21 days since the hamstring tear. He will also incorporate the Return to Sport program to try to mitigate the risk of other injuries as he returns to his typical workload. Thank you Core Advantage Team for your support, time, and willingness to make such great information available!

I would like to add to the list of reviews here that we’re now through week 6 and it’s the first time in over a year that my daughter has consistently reported a pain of 0-1 while playing. She’s currently doing both club soccer and school basketball and since beginning of November has even had some “two-a-days” where she’s done both. I truly believe this program has helped her as she finally committed to the regimen after being out for 10-days last month due to pain being an 8-10. This has been the most success she’s found with a treatment program. Ever.

The Osgood program has made a huge difference for our 13 year old competitive tennis player. In May he was limping off court and couldnt even step up into our truck. We did a combo of things but he still follows this routine regularly.'

My daughter stopped having any knee pain problems by week 4. I was skeptical in the beginning but I am so grateful the program worked.

My 6’5” 15-year old has need struggling with a very bad case of OSD for awhile and nothing was helping until we started this program. We’re in week 5 and his pain has gone down pretty significantly. He’s not pain free yet but has been able to start getting into some soccer practices and some light running with pain that’s manageable. His recovery times are vastly improved as well. Instead of being in pain for a week his better by the next day. Looking forward to getting through week 7 and will definitely plan to stick with it. Rolling has become second nature and he takes his roller to practices with him as well. So glad we found this program thank you!

The program works great my son (12) had a severe osgood on one knee. He started the program after a week of complete rest he was pain free by week 3 and back on the field during week 4. He completed the program and has not had any pain since. The foam roller is part of his warm up routine now and he continues doing the stretches daily.

We are so glad we found this program and so happy with it. My daughter has done several of the weeks several times for various reasons but has now finished all the weeks. She is a goalkeeper in soccer and can now train as normal but when she sprints a lot her knee still hurts a bit. This quickly improves when she stops the activity. Thank you very much for a great program! It has been a great help!

Buenas tardes: Hemos comenzado la semana 5 y el dolor ha ido decreciendo paulatinamente hasta situarse en cotas muy bajas. Seguiremos con el programa osgood hasta acabar pero nos surge una duda: Al acabar el programa proponen otro programa de acondicionamiento al deporte. Sabiendo que el deporte que va realizar Adei va a ser futbol ¿es comveniente que realize este programa? Es compatible el programa con las caracteristicas del futbol ya que este deporte implica impacto de balón? Gracias de antemano. Adei

This program has been a blessing for my daughter who struggled so much with Osgood in both knees that her track season didn’t really happen. Afterwards we started this program she was able to start running again within a few weeks and progress to 25 miles a week all pain free!! We can’t be more thankful for this and the outcome! She will continue with it always and maybe do the next program too!

After 2 years of chasing resolution to my sons knee pain we have seen 90% reduction in pain. Fantastic program and instructions written and video. Thank you.

Initially I was skeptical of paying the money for the program. Even during the first couple of days of pushing through the foam rolling it was hard but boy was it worth it. After only about 3 weeks all my pain was gone like no joke. I had this knee pain since for a whole year. I used to train legs consistently until I got tendinitis which turned into osgood then I stopped training legs for a year. The tendonitis went away but I was left with osgood. I tried to do anything but I would still get pain in knee I was hopeless i stumbled across this program and saw the money back guarantee and I thought why not just try it. I am pain free I can hit legs in the gym. I am slowly easing myself back into the numbers I once hit like 315lb on squat and now I am also back playing basketball. Where I would always fear playing because of the pain I would get after.

Parfait

My son has had OGS for more than 12 month and was not able to play badminton tournements. After 9 month he starting practising with foam roller and a month later started this program. He is now almost pain free and has played his first tournements. He is so trilled. I wish we had made use of this program earlier.

My son could barely walk suffering from Osgood in both knees. We felt great after this program and was able to start participating in sports again. Absolutely recommend.

My 13 year old son was suffering from severe pain in his knees. The doctors in our area told us “just let him rest.” That was the only thing we were told. Fortunately I was able to find this treatment program and IT WORKS! It works very well. Weeks 1-4 were a little iffy. We weren’t sure if the end results would be what we had hoped but just like the program says keep at it and stay consistent and the results will come. We just finished the program and our son’s pain (which was a 9 out of 10 most days) is now in the 1-2-3 range even after exercising. Thank you!!!

My daughter is starting week 7 and is 90%! We have a little more work to do but this program gave us a sense of control and power when we had nothing else. Thank you!

My daughter had OS in both knees and after following this program she became pain free in a short amount of time. It exceeded our expectations.

I bought the programme for my son who is 14 and had been suffering with pain for several months. He plays football at academy level and his pain stopped him playing altogether. After advice from his physios with little improvement we decided to give the plan a go. It is very similar in terms of content to the exercises we had been given by the physio but what was really useful was the structure of the plan. It meant that Jack knew exactly what he was doing each day which really helped keep him motivated. By the end of the 7 weeks he was back at training and now 3 weeks later has just played his first match in 6 months with very little pain. I think that says it all! Thank you

Mijn zoon is heel blij met het programma. Hij heeft veel minder pijn en als het even opkomt houdt het minder lang aan. Ook de fysiotherapeut is blij met het resultaat.

Highly recommend this program. My 10 yr old son was diagnosed with Osgood and told to stop his sports and do some general stretches. However he has too much energy and loves sports too much. After finding this program and finishing 7 weeks I would say my son’s Osgood diagnosis had turned out to be a blessing. He is now stronger and more athletic than he was previously.

My 13 year old son started feeling pain in his knees in September 2023 and we thought it was due to some on filed hits he incurred during games. The pain became quite intense especially after training and games. We visited our doctor and after an x-ray we were told he was suffering from the onset of Osgood Schlatter and all we could do was manage the pain with icing and dial back his training. We went to a physio therapist to do laser treatment but even after 10 sessions it did not help much at all. The pain got so bad after games and intense training that I had to give him Tylenol on two occasions for pain relief. I did not want to start giving him tylenol after every game so I search the internet for anything I could find to take a proactive approach and this is when I found the Core Advantage OS program. I was a little skeptical but after spending almost $500 on laser therapy with no avail I figured whats another $100US to try this program. Well! it was well worth the investment. At the peak my sons pain was a 7-8 based on the programs pain rating system. After 10 weeks my son is reporting 0-1 in pian and is back to his intense training and full game minutes. We are very pleased with the results and can see that my son is starting to play with full intensity and effort. I did not want to accept that pain management was the only option and waiting until my son completed his growth cycle so I searched and hunted for alternative options and I am glad I did. I have to believe that 100% of child athletes are regimented enough to follow the process and quitting their sport is not an option so if they are willing to follow this program they will be back to full training in 2 months. My son continues to repeat his week 7 exercises every week and has just completed his 10th week with next to no pian at all.'

I am a father of a 16 y.o. who plays running back for his local American football team. His position requires sudden and explosive move changes that we think exacerbated his OS. The pain he felt in his knee was severe enough that we took him to knee specialists. They all said that hell grow out of it. However after many months of rest and reengagement with mixed results we needed something specific to help him successfully rehab his knee. So we tried this program and so far it has been super successful! You have to do the program very meticulously and it takes the 7 weeks (no shortcuts) but it appears to be what we needed and should have done 6 months prior. Well wishes to CORE Advantage! Stay strong and be smart!'

My son could not get rid of his Osgood Schlatter and we could not afford private PT for him. This program has been a lifesaver! We hope he can resume playing soon.

My son has Osgood Schlatters and at first we were completely distraught. This program gave us hope and really works! Were so grateful!'

My 12 year old son suffers from OSD and was in a lot of pain. He had tried physio but had limited success. The workbook and scheduled exercises really helped though - but it is one of those things where consistency is important. He saw a huge improvement in the first couple of weeks and has a lot of skills to manage it. Weve just finished week 7 and I think he'll have to stick with it a while to get back to where he was and prevent or reduce reoccurrences.'

My 12-year-old son absolutely loves basketball but has been dealing with severe Osgood-Schlatters. By following this program he has been able to get back to playing the sport he loves. The first few weeks of the program are tough and painful but the foam rolling really does help. But if you can persevere and get through it the results are amazing. We cant thank Core Advantage enough for their help. Highly recommended.'

It really helped with treating my osgood schlatters when nothing else had worked

We are very pleased with how well the program is working for my 13yr old son. As many others say the foam rolling in the beginning was really tough to get through but knee pain decreased significantly almost right away. He was in PT but they werent doing anything that would help lengthen his quads which was the missing piece for him. We are working our way through the program and are optimistic that he will be able to play lacrosse this spring. Thank you so much!!!'

Logical step by step process that helped eliminate osgood schlatters hopefully for good. Thank you 🙏

Simply Amazing results!! Nothing else worked.

I purchased this program to help my 15 year old son overcome the pain he has been having in both knees while playing lacrosse. At one point he could barely jog off the field. Once he started this program he quickly started having less pain and was able to return to play. Thanks for the great program the got my son back on the field again.

After trying virtually everything we tried this program. My son Mateo is now pain free and back to playing soccer. Thank you ! Thank you !!

I can’t believe it. I suffered from osgoods when I was a kid….. it lasted months if not years. My son Harry has followed the program. Painful at first. Tears during the rolling but stuck with it. He now makes it look easy but more important he is pain free a lot of the times. I don’t think he is completely cured but is still rolling stretching and strengthening and will continue to do so. Dubious at first but wow! Thanks guys….. forever grateful.

Not an easy program to follow for a teenager in the first weeks (it is time consuming and the foam rolling hurts) but you can quickly see results. My son is almost pain free and can resume all his sport activities so he (and we) are extremely happy with the results. Highly recommended!

My daughter age 12 was diagnosed with OS last year and was given PT but still had pain when doing the thing she loved like soccer and skiing. After completing the 7 week program she has been pretty much pain free. Sometimes when she trains hard running she will have just a little pain but recovers quickly after using the roller and resting and is able to practice or play a game the next day. As an older athlete 43 I never had OS but wanted to feel what she was going through so I started using the roller and the pain I had in my knees which I thought was from older injurys went away in less then two weeks helping me run faster and have increased flexibility. We look forward to completing the unstoppable program!'

We are on week 7 and generally my daughter pain is always at a zero now we started at a 7 Lets see what the advanced program does!

We were a little skeptical but desperate to find some relief for my son who plays basketball and constant knee pain. We were diligent with the rolling and following the videos. By week 2 there was a big improvement. We have been at it for over 7 weeks. On days where we can’t fit in all the exercises we roll stretch and activate glutes at a minimum. Not only has it helped his knee pain but has made his upper body stronger. Highly recommend this program for those who are serious about putting in some time to make their pain better and get back to playing the sport they love.

My 14 yrs old son had osgood we followed the program after 6 weeks he was pain free and was able to resume and go practice his favorite sport football.

Very impressed with the structure & the resources provided

Outstanding program! This year my 13 year old son started practicing at a soccer academy in the morning and then with his club in the afternoon. He started complaining about knee pain his performance decreased and he started missing more and more practice. After doing some research we identified the issue (Osgood) and found this program. At first I was a little skeptical but within a week of starting rolling (one of the first program steps) his knee pain had dropped significantly and he was back at practice. This was a big relief as I didnt know what do here. A couple of reasons the program has been so successful is the simplicity of the instruction and the ease of the program workbook. I was able to watch the weekly program videos with my son give him the workbook and he could complete. The basics are no more than 10 minutes per day which is important for 13 year old with an attention span of a squirrel. It was very doable without constant supervision. Importantly the program provides an understanding in language that a 13 year old can understand as to why it focuses on certain stretches and muscle building I certainly give the program a 5 star and I have even picked up the daily foam rolling personally!'

My daughters pain dropped significantly after 2 weeks in the program. By week 7 her pain was averaging mostly in the 1's and occasionally low 2's. She missed a lot of time with both kneea flaring up several months apart. She did traditional PT with the first knee and her results were much quicker and better with Core Advantage program. Thank you!!!'

This program working. We are lucky to found it 1 month after my 11 year old son was diagnostic Osgood Schlatter. The starting was hard ..we take time to learn how to use the foam in the first weeks. Now we start week 6 . He has no pain since week 4. he back on ici and make full practice and games. My advise you need to take time no rush. we are on week 6 but we repeat (week 2 week 3 week 4 ) all 2 times and he stopped sport for the first 2 weeks of the program. Now he like doing foam because he feel better and he want to doing the 2nd program Unstoppable... Thank you very much for building this program.

My 13 year son has been in pain for over a year! Within a week his pain levels dropped from an 8 to a 2 and his pain (week 7) is now down to a 1-0 on a regular basis! This plan has been a lifesaver!

The osgood program is excellent! My 11 year old daughter was unable to finish a soccer match or training prior to using the program. Within a few weeks she was making it through minor pain and now 10 weeks later she plays without any complaint of knee pain. We follow the program daily exactly and have been pain free for months and getting back to pre-injury fitness possibly stronger. Thank You so much for designing this program and sharing it! I recommend it to everyone with osgood schlatters issues.

Excellent program. The program design flows very well. Amazing recovery. Looking back 7 weeks ago my 11 year old daughter came home from basketball in tears limping and in extreme pain. Easy 9/10 pain. She had rested completely for 2 weeks prior doing nothing. This was her first training session back. We were at a cross roads. Either pull her out of sport for a year or as a last resort try the program. She had made nice friends at basketball and was really sad she wouldnt see them again.Previously she was having regular massage and stretching and ice. Basically what we thought was the standard approach. But it wasn't working. When she foam rolls now there is no pain but at the start it was tough going. She is streghening muscles and building her confidence again. For the cost of the program it presents as good value as this is what it would probably cost to see a health professional and you would hope the health professional really knows their stuff. Would love an oportunity to book a one on one session in the future to make sure we are doing all the exercises correctly. Thanks'

Take allot of commitment and discipline but works perfectly for my son. Thank you very much I will recommend to everyone who suffer Osgood Shlatters.'

My son is 11 and he could barley walk once we took a helmet to the knee in football. It flared his osgood schlater. We found this program and it has worked fantastic he is ready to go for basketball now!

This programme has been fantastic. I wish Id had the courage to get it a few weeks earlier than we did. The programme has really worked to reduce pain and get my daughter back to her sport. It was so great to have a structured programme with clear exercises progression guidelines and load management tools that she could follow herself to take ownership and control over managing her osgood. So very grateful to the core advantage team for making this programme available. It's so important to keep our kids active while they're growing. Thank you.'

my son started the programme after only a week he was virtually pain free the first time for several months. within 3 wks he was back to training and after 5 back playing competetive sport. superb programme that s realy worked.

My son started with a pain level of 8 and after 7 weeks he is down to 0-1. It seems the program did an excellent job. We combined the program with a treble frequency therapy using a very small device (WeWoThom) which was used 6 hours during nights.

Great program. My 14 yr old had great success.

The rolling exercises and program was excellent. I was able to treat my knee and control the pain while maintaining the majority of my on ice hockey training. An excellent age appropriate program for young athletes.

My only regret is that we didnt find this program sooner. Unfortunately we followed our doctor's advice at first to rest and ice which only made things worse. My son was in excrutiating pain when walking and had stopped playing soccer. A week into the program and his pain had significantly subsided. We're finishing week 6 my son is back on the pitch and ramping up slowly and for the first time in months we are hopeful that he'll be able to get back to his intense training schedule and competitions. The program is easy to follow with instructional videos. Don't wait if your kiddo is suffering with knee pain start this program today!!'

I am amazed at how well this program works. I am skeptical of quick fixes for physical limitations but my son is on week 5 and is back on the soccer pitch without pain. He works hard at it but the results are so great that he wants to put in the time. I am so relieved that he has learned how to control his pain and can enjoy his sport.

this program is really amazing. after months of uncertainty and pain osgood was completely gone in just 10 days. of course you have to work diligently every day but the work is really worth it. highly recommended

My 13 year old daughter is a middle distance runner but had developed very sore knees and wasnt able to run 50 metres without intense pain. Her dream of competing at the State Championships was in tatters in March this year. On advice from the first aid people at the Championships she started the Core Advantage Osgood program. She was very strict with the program and followed it exactly as prescribed and continues to do so all the time. And wow! She has had such an amazing change and is now so much better. She got back to competition and has won/done very well in many different races. The ultimate proof is that four months after starting the program she has just been selected for the State team to go to the Australian cross country championships. Her dream is back on track thanks to Core Advantage.'

This program delivered. My 14 year old son rolls out everyday even though he finished week 7 a while ago. He has been able to play and train for soccer virtually pain free since the end of week one. Worth every penny!

My 14 year old son was diagnosed with Osgood earlier this year and the physio told us that to get rid of it was to stop playing sports for a period of time or he can play through it by managing it of course my son wanted to keep playing and was “managing” the pain for a couple of months wearing a knee brace and putting ice on the knee bone after sports but it only made the pain worst each time he played/train. We are so glad we found this program my older son used to go to Core Advantage when he was playing junior sports and loved it so when we saw this program we were confident it was backed by experts in this field. The first 3-4 weeks of the program helped to reduce my son’s pain to low level it was great that he didn’t have to stop sports completely. He found that as he increased his workload he had a spike in the pain level do not be discouraged by this he stuck with the program he even repeated one of the weeks as suggested in the program and even when he got to week seven he found he still had a bit of pain after sports so he just kept working on week seven it took a couple more weeks and he became pain free and now back to the same sports routine he had before Osgood. He continues to do the week seven of the program. We are so happy to see his confidence back. Thank you Core Advantage for this great program and your team has been wonderful in answering the queries I had at the start of the program.

Feeling better but still have some pain after hockey

By the end of week 2 pain had decreased dramatically and the run/limp movement had started to improve. By Week 4 he was moving smoothly again and after week 6 he was back to normal - no pain!!

I have found the program pay particular attention to the needs of the junior athlete while further enhancing my education as a coach.. highly recommend 👌

My 13 year old completed the program and is on his 3rd week of doing the week 7 maintenance. This program is effective in keeping his pain very low (1-2) and helping him continue to play hockey and football without any issues. He did the program exactly as prescribed and religiously rolls every day. It has become part of his weekly routine. I have recommended this to his friends and are so glad we found it. It has cost us a fraction of the time and money it would have required to see a physio in person. We can easily fit it into his busy schedule. Thank you for making this program accessible to all!

We are half way through the sixth week of the program. The results have been nothing short of incredible. After the first week of rolling the pain had diminished from 7 and 8s all the way down to 2 and 3's Make no mistake this first week is brutal on the child and parent but with preserverence came results. We will be continuing on with the Unstoppable. He has returned to full sport training with more confidence then before. Simply because his results came from his work. Thank you for this.'

Got my son back to catching for the spring baseball season after 5 weeks. I highly recommend.

I was skeptical if this would work. Our 14yo son had been in pain and barely able to participate in basketball for months. We had tried some stretches from a trainer and knee but nothing was helping. We thought it would be worth it to try as we were desperate to try anything. Within 4 weeks of starting the program and being diligent every day he saw a huge improvement and by week 6 he had no pain anymore. Would give 10 stars if I could.

My son plays soccer and has had a bought of OSG for 3 years.We have tried other workouts but my son wasnt commited enough.With this program he has stuck with it.Soccer season is now over so we cant tell if he is back to 100% but he says that his knee hasnt hurt at the last three open fields.Hopefuly come soccer season he is 100% and can start having fun again.

We decided to try the Osgood Program for our 13 year old son as nothing else was working (rest physio stretches etc) and we were starting to think it would never go away. Its truly the best thing we could have done for him. He has recently finished the 7 week program and we will continue on with week 7 for the foreseeable future. He was barely able to play basketball for 5minutes and if he tried to push on for longer he would be almost unable to walk the next day. When we started his pain was consistently 8/10 now he's at a 1 most days. After a gentle start he is back playing basketball and footy and is looking better and moving more freely every day. He has also improved his overall strength and muscle tone just from consistently doing the same exercises. I was watching him train for footy this week and seeing him move and run like everyone else was so wonderful and such a relief to be here after over a year of pain. I can't recommend this program highly enough! I will say it does require a lot of time and commitment but it's worth every minute to get the results we have. Thank you!'

This program has brought excellent results for my 14 year old son who was suffering from Osgood Schlatters in the right knee. The payoff after 1 week of foam rolling and isometrics was very noticeable and helped my son buy in to the program right away. The programs content is very highly focussed the concise delivery makes it easy to get going. The tone of the content and framing of the instructions is very empowering. It guides the athlete to adapt the program to their pain levels opening the door to taking as long as necessary to advance from week to week. This is reassuring as kids are often pressured to go all out and this program helps them step back and take care of their body. The sports science that is woven in to the material is excellent in supporting the progression.'

My 14 year old son had an ongoing and intense bout of OS and we were at our wits end with what to do. We came across this program and immediately gave it a try. Not only did we see immediate results his OS was completely gone after 5 weeks. I can not recommend this program enough! If your kiddo has OS its 100% worth a try. Oh yes there were also amazing benefits of the roll-out program on his core strength. We are so grateful to have come across this program!'

The diagnosis of Osgood Schlatter on our 9-years old gymnast daughter was devastating. We live in France and the only medical advise we got was to stop sport either for 6 weeks or for 18 months (depending on the pain level) which my daughter could not accept. Discovering support through this program and through the facebook group was extremely helpful. Immediately the feeling to be empowered was a relief and we started to do something together to fight the disease rather than waiting and praying for the pain to go away. The two first weeks were difficult but thanks to the pain log we saw a small improvement after 10 days. We are now at week 7 the pain is under 1/10 and my daughter is back to her 15-hours a week training. I would like to thank all the team for all your efforts spreading this program. With my sincere appreciation and recognition for the work you are doing for young athletes Caroline Marck-Haehnel

We were devasted when our son was diagnosed with Osgood. But going through this program helped him a lot. After just rolling his pain was off by more than 80 percent and went done to 1s and 0 for the most part. I was able to call Durham on the phone several times and several weeks and he was very gracious to us and helped us on what to do next. The program was so good that I purchased the next program....Return unstoppable immediately. Its been 10 weeks now and my son has not hard any flare ups as long as he follows through with the daily routine of rolling strectching and glute activation and returned to his sport immediately after week 6. Thank you so much Durham for this program. We appreciate you a lot. Regards Kunle'

We learned so much about load balance- particularly for my son to pay attention to the cues himself. He is doing great- thank you for a great program!

It worked out great for my son and the instructional videos and written program were super helpful!

Best thing I could’ve done for my daughter to heal quickly. I was concerned about how long Osgood-Schlatter would keep her from playing soccer. With this program she was able to continue practicing and gradually increased back to her normal schedule.

Weve been moving more slowly through the program but it has been very effective for my boys one with OSD the other with FPPS. Both are able to play soccer much more comfortably now while regaining their dynamic qualities.'

My daughter is 14 and battled horrific Osgood-Schlatter in both knees for over a year related to intense gymnastics training. PT didn’t even help. She retired from the sport but continued to have terrible knee pain when she tried new activities. After just a day or two of this program her pain improved and was very manageable after a week or two. However she stopped doing the rolling and all the pain came back. This program is amazing but my daughter will need to continue long term (especially the foam rolling) to manage her pain in order to continue tumbling and track and field activities. I’m so grateful we found a tool to manage her pain and allow her to participate in sports!

My 14 year old son started this program with a 7/10 pain. He had missed the majority of his fall season of sports because of the pain we invested in regular physio consistently and he was completely frustrated (and so were we!). He took the first 2 weeks completely off basketball so he could work the program. He took the next few weeks to do only what allowed him to be at a max of 3-4/10 and by week 6/7 he was able to run fast and jump again with no pain! It’s been several weeks now of playing regularly. He just came home this week from an intense practice that would formally have done him in and he had no pain!!!! 🙌 The rolling has been instrumental for him. He rolls before games and practices and stretches after. We are so deeply grateful for this program. The simple layout the exact steps to follow and the full understanding of it all made it easy and accessible to follow even for my 14 year old. He would resist some of the strengthening work sometimes because he didn’t “feel like it” but ultimately he did it. Thank you thank you thank you! Our athlete can do what he loves again ❤️

15 year old son who plays a lot of sport mainly hockey has been suffering with Osgoods for 2 years. Since following this programme he has been able to get back to playing the sport he loves pain free but also with greater flexibility and strength. The first few weeks of the programme are tough with the foam rolling but if you can preserve and get through it the results are amazing. Highly recommend.

The program was brilliant it does exactly what it says it should! We got an immediate reduction in pain levels in the first 2 weeks then a steady reduction every week after that. Had a little tournament-triggered hiccup in week 6 but the support docs helped us get back on track quickly. Highly recommend the team is also very supportive!

My 11 year soccer player followed this program after dealing with OSD for a couple of months and immediately felt better. Would recommend for any kid suffering from OSD.

My daughter started having pain from training for triathlon mainly running part. There are so many free training videos for Osgood on YouTube but I wanted something more constructive program to follow rather than doing random exercises. I just googled and found this program and decided to give it a try. It would be cheaper than taking her to PTs. In the 3rd week she started having less pain and continued to improve. Now she is in the track team and runs daily which I thought would be impossible 3 months ago. Im proud of her sticking with the program daily and very grateful for this program.'

Thankful for this program My son found out he had Osgood Schlatters Disease this past summer. He was in a lot of pain on a daily basis. Running jumping and participating in his sports was a challenge. He had followed his doctor’s recommendations for weeks completing the stretches and exercises as instructed. He wasn’t seeing improvement though and was feeling frustrated and defeated. Once his soccer season started he was determined to not let Osgood stop him. Despite how determined he was the pain and problems of Osgood were just too much. He would often leave practices in tears either from the pain or from frustration with not having the strength and mobility that he was accustomed to. I wanted to help and started to wonder if there was another option that we could try. So one night I googled “Osgood Schlatter’s yoga ” and that is when I stumbled on Core Advantage. After reading all the info I remained skeptical. I just didn’t understand how such a program could exist with such success. Despite my doubts I wanted to give it a shot. Nothing else had worked thus far so what did we have to lose. My son is now starting his seventh week of the program and we have seen drastic improvement in his pain to the point that some days it is next to minimal. It has been wonderful! He is able to compete at the level that he was at pre-Osgood and he is much more optimistic and energized knowing that things are improving. The program is straightforward clear and thorough. I also like that many of the stretches and exercises are things he can use beyond simply curing Osgood but also to continue to become a better all-around athlete. We are thankful for this program!'

The programme was great The programme was great. My daughter who is a dancer and usually very active went from not being able to walk due to the pain to gaining strength and her mobility back. In the first few days we noticed improvement in her pain levels then after week 3 when the weights and strengthening component was incorporated we noticed her strength returning. Now she is back to dancing very happy and pain free and aware of what she can do should the pain come back.

This program was amazingly put together… This program was amazingly put together and helped my 15 year old with his knee pain. He is doing so much better. This programmed helped inform myself and him. So we could strengthen and stretch his legs.

It works!!! Because of this my daughter doesn’t have to stop doing what she loves. The pain may flare up after a hard practice but she keeps up with the at home practices and it goes away faster. Because she was consistent on doing this every day she’s in so much less pain! She’ll keep doing this for another round of 7 weeks because it’s working! So grateful for this program!

Shockingly effective for a 12-year-old athlete A renowned sports-medicine doctor indicated that my son (a 12-year-old competitive rock climber and recreational trail runner) had a clear case of Osgood-Schlatters. The diagnosis was unambiguous from both the physical exam and the imaging he said. The doctor explained that a series of PT sessions might help but he was not particularly convinced. He was also skeptical about bands post-exercise ice and NSAIDs. Wanting to try *something* in advance of a major competition in 1.5 months I found this online program which my son followed religiously. The impact was profound. Within three days of fairly intensive rolling my son reported that the pain was drastically reduced. By week-4 he was almost pain-free. By week-6 he was pain-free. While the skeptic in me says not to draw firm conclusions when N=1 there is no control and pain is inherently subjective my son and I both believe that it could only have been this program particularly the foam rolling that made the difference. An exemplary ratio efficacy over cost or time. Further comment: son used the TriggerPoint 13" GRID roller which he could stuff clothes into and fit in a carry-on for plane travel.

Figure skater with Osgood This program is amazing. My daughter is a figure skater. She developed Osgood-Schlatters and was in so much pain while she was training. Another parent from the ice rink used this program for her youngest child (a gymnast) and had great results. My daughter was diligent about doing her exercises and stretches every day and it really worked. It has almost completely eliminated all of her pain. She went back to her normal on ice training while working through week 3 of the program. She was a little sore a few days where her training was more intense. She is completely back to her regular routine without pain now.'

Great Results My daughter is a figure skater and began experiencing Osgood pain. Another skate parent recommended this program and it has been great. Doing the program faithfully every day has successfully decreased her pain level to the point where she is not only able to train again but most days she is totally pain free.

Excellent programme which helped my son… Excellent programme which helped my son immensely. Would definitely recommend it.

My son was having intense pain in his… My son was having intense pain in his knees and shins. We had tried everything. We saw a PT and had steroid injections stretches over the counter pain meds bands around knee etc. I happened randomly upon your website and what a miracle! This program has helped tremendously with the pain. My son went from a 10 pain to a 2 within the first few weeks of starting this program. He can now play basketball without pain for the first time since he was in 5th grade. He faithfully does this program daily. Thank you so much. Also very affordable.

Thank you SO much!!! I honestly cannot believe there are so many people suffering from Osgood Schlatters that have no idea about this program. I am telling everyone! My 11 year old daughter was diagnosed a few months ago and we were told as long as she could “deal with the pain” she could continue with her sport (competitive cheer) Her knee was so painful/swollen she couldn’t tumble without crying and limping for days after. Our orthopedic even put her on crutches for 2 weeks! I just couldn’t accept that this was something she would have to deal with or quit the sport she loves. I am so glad I continued to research any and everything possible and find this program!! My daughter just started her final week today and has been back to tumbling since her 2nd week into the program. I honestly cannot be more grateful for the guys that published this program! Thank you!! To know that there IS something out there that works and lets those diagnosed continue doing the things they love. I will continue to recommend this program to anyone suffering from Osgood Schlatters. It 100% works!!

I thought it too good to be true having spend lots of time at top Physiotherapists. Three weeks in and pain went from a 6 to a 1

Would give unlimited stars if I could! Faithfully following this program was the only thing that kept my daughter dancing. She was walking with a limp before we figured we had nothing to lose and gave this program a shot. Every doctor we saw said there was nothing we could do and she would just have to grow out of it. Beyond thankful for Durham and his Osgood Schlatters Pain Elimination Program.

This program worked for my son! My son started experiencing Osgood Schlatters in June before his freshman year of high school. He was to play his first season of high school soccer but he was having so much pain. We found this program after I searched for answers and anything to help ease his pain. It seemed very comprehensive so we gave it a shot. It was not easy because there is definitely some pain with foam rolling and getting a 14 year old kid to be consistent took effort. But Im so glad we found this program and followed through because his pain diminished greatly in about 2 weeks and was pain free in about 9 weeks (he continued for a couple extra weeks). Trust and follow through!'

Osgood Schlatters Best Program My son 12 year old had horrible pain (rated 10) couldnt walk July of 2020. US doctors recommend rest & Advil with minor physical therapy (once every 10 days). I couldn't accept that found Core Advantage he tried it as we had nothing to lose. By week 3 he was at pain level of 3. By the end of the program he had no pain and now coming up on two years - pain free. Playing multiple sports (soccer track lacrosse). He made regionals in soccer and an elite team traveling to England this summer. This program is worth every penny and more!!!'

I recommend this program to hikers I followed the program 2 years ago and it seems to have worked for me. I recommend it. I could not hike any more downhill only uphill. After this program I am hiking again also downhill. I can do again hikes of 1500 meters elevation gain. I do then carefully wearing a knee brace sometimes just in case using trekking poles of course and also if I feel sone discomfort I use cold water afterwards. I now follow this program more or less every summer.

Pain free track and field athlete with Schlatter My daughter got Schlatter one year ago (11 years old at that time). We did the whole program which made her able to train again during the program. After that we have continued to do the glute and static/iso quad excercises twice a week for a year and she is totally pain free. She can even train hurdle now which was the most painful. I have also incorporated the static/iso quad excercise with many of my fencing athletes with great result but of course I recommend them in the first place to meet a physio or get this whole program.

Bought the program for my Daughter because she just couldn’t get rid of the pain. We waited until after XC season last year to get started (wish we would have done it sooner) and she did the entire program. By the start of Track season no pain. She has continued the program diligently and has remained pain free. She has improved her times in the process also. An added bonus the strength has helped her in general and she has made several comments her legs don’t get tired as easily.

It changed my boys life. After 2 years of struggle and pain this was showed him the light at the end of the tunnel and delivered. I would highly recommend to anyone.

Excellent results My son used this program as a 12 and 13-year old with bad O-S. When he was disciplined with the exercises things improved. When he got lazy he went backwards a bit. Once he realized that he used the program conscientiously and recovered fully in about 6 months to play competitive basketball and soccer.

Stick with it…it’s only 2 months The program was very easy to follow. My son did not in buy at first. I had to stay on him to put in the time each day. He is grateful now. After suffering for 2.5 years my son is finally pain free thanks to the program! Thank you!

I watched my son struggle for years… I watched my son struggle for years with pain in sports. His heart was in it and he gave it his all every time but he just couldnt perform how he wanted because of the pain that he had in his knees. He himself out of frustration found this program online during summer break and came to me and asked if he could get it. We purchased the program and he went through the program faithfully. It wasn't long before he and I both knew that this was going to work. Within a short while he started seeing relief from doing things he couldn't do very much before because of the pain. It was the best purchase I have made for him hands down. Plus what great knowledge we have now to help others. He participates normally now with no pain. He does still have to maintain. When he starts to feel it a bit he just does the maintenance that he needs to and he stays pain free. Thank you so much for this program. It was a life saver.'

The osgood schlatter recovery program… The osgood schlatter recovery program is amazing! My son did it and his knee isn’t painful anymore! He plays football with confidence like he did before osgood happened! I’m so happy I found this program and I can’t thank enough to the people who made it with such amazing results.

A highly successful program It was such a relief to find this amazing program. It took us a little longer than 7 weeks to complete as we repeated a few weeks due to the severity of pain... I would highly recommend this program. Thank you so much for developing it.

Worked….12 year old hockey player This program worked for our 12 year old hockey player. All pain was gone within 2-4 weeks. He resumed all on-ice and off ice activities with no set backs for a 60 plus game season. Foam rolling and quad/hamstring stretches have now become a 2x/day normal part of his training routine. His flexibility has greatly improved and a healthy daily routine has been established. The Orthopedic specialist we went to said all we could do is rest and if pain came back to stop playing. Simply put we are glad we ignored his advise did our own research and gave this program a try.

Amazing for my 13 year old son

My son has followed all instructions… So far so good.

It seems to have worked for me I recommend this program in fact I have already recommended to friends of mine. I now try to follow this program in various degrees every summer before the hiking season. With the knee the main problem is hiking down rather than up. Last summer after hiking to a glacier the way down was roughly 2000 meters down and I was really afraid the knee would hurt. In fact it didnt and this was just one of the many hikes that I had last summer with 1500 meters of elevation gain. So yes I do recommend this program.'

My son developed Osgood Schlatters in 2020 at age 12. The Core Advantage program was the best thing we did to treat manage and subsequently resolve his signs and symptoms. I would highly recommend Core Advantage their knowledge professionalism and always friendly and helpful service made my son feel safe and supported!!

My sons pain went away in les then 3 months. Before hè was in severe pain swollen kneed and all.

My 11 year old son thanked me this morning for finding this program for him! He is a catcher and had arm issues last Spring. He was out the whole season so imagine his frustration when his knees were bothering him at the start of Spring season this year. He starts week 7 of the program tomorrow and I am happy to report he is pain free. I highly recommend this program! It is worth every penny!

Honestly we found your program late meaning I paid for it and like 3 days later our 10 year old had zero pain. Nonetheless we made her go through the program because she’s still growing and the problem could return. It’s hard to get buy in with a 10 year old but she was determined to play and be back to 100%. She plays volleyball and tennis and it was during volleyball that her Osgood started. She’s 10 and measures 5 feet tall. Her dad’s pretty tall and there are some tall genes on my mom’s side of the family so maybe she’ll be lucky. Going through your program we liked the isometric exercises the most. She still hates the foam rolling. We also liked the fact that we could record her pain. She continues to be pain free so she’s kept up with the exercises. Thanks so much for making the program available. Our PT doc was a joke. He wasn’t interested in helping us just in charging us the full amount of sessions and acupuncture (not covered) from our insurance. We chose your program over him. Thanks again so much.

We haven’t finished the programme yet but so far we are very impressed. My 13yr old son was missing almost an entire football season due to Osgood Slatter. The pain started after 3 intense training sessions at the start of the season (following 4-5wks rest and a summer growth spurt). We went to physios and doctors but no one knew exactly what to do. We bought a roller but didn’t know how to use it and didn’t realise the importance of a daily routine. We spoke to the father of another boy in the team who had suffered exactly the same and who quickly got back to playing by following the programme. My son is now at week 6 and about to be selected by the trainer to play again. We are very grateful for the excellent advice we have received from the Core Advantage team!

The osgood-schlatters program from core advantage changed my sons life more than pain relief. He now believes and has the skills to self heal. That belief is life changing. I am so grateful for the core team that I answer any question with our experience and recommend to every kid in our community suffering. First the program works. Hand down. I cant believe how many wrong treatments that are out there (i.e. rest....) that I am passionate about helping the core team get the word out to anyone I come across. My son was 10-11 years old soccer player with a fast onset of OS that was debilitating for him right when we were released back to play during COVID shutdown. We had to find a solution quickly and make sure (for his mental health) he missed as few practices and games as possible. He took one week off when starting the program then went back to practice and was able to manage the pain through rolling. By the end of 4 weeks he was to minimal pain and no restrictions. 8 weeks he was pain free. Here is what we learned 1) your kid will have to own it themselves. They have to be committed show up consistently and do the work. There will be set backs but the program coaches you through it. If they own it they will succeed. If you just wish for them it likely won't work. 2) Have them listen to their body. It will guide them. If they need to stay in a phase stay there. If they need to go back go back. Only the kid knows the pain and they need to learn to figure it out so they can guide themselves. 3) Attention to detail matters. The exercises work but you have to do them with good form. The resources are there so it's easy to do as long as you pay attention. The team can give you guidance and the materials are great. 4) ROLL!!!! Not just as part of his daily exercises but before and after practice morning and night if needed. My son doesn’t go a practice without his roller. The kids that are dedicated to the process will find what works and once they lower the pain to manageable they won’t look back. They will also have a belief that they know how to heal themselves instilled for life. That is empowering and priceless. Incredibly grateful to the Core Advantage team for bringing this training to the market. It's clear simple and very inexperience to the beneft you get. Buy the program. Good luck!!!!!'

This program has helped my 14 yr olds Osgood knee pain tremendously! We were told my an ortho doc that rest and some stretches were all he could do. This is impressive!'

I am so thankful that I found this program for my 13 year old son. As a massage therapist myself I was totally on board with all the rolling strengthening and retraining rather than just stretching which can really put more strain on the damaged muscle attachments. The program is designed to be doable for even a reluctant teenager! Once he got through the excruciating pain of the first week of rolling he could handle the slow and steady pace of the program. I have integrated a lot more rolling into my personal fitness program as well. Thank you for making this accessible world wide.

This program was life changing. My son was playing with severe pain due to Osgood Schlatters. We followed the program religiously and little by little he improved and healed. As parents we feel all our children’s pain and would gladly take it for them. I can’t thank Core Advantage enough. 3 years later he is the captain of his high school soccer team lead goal scorer and MVP. Also the starting striker on his Juventus Club team. None of this would be possible without Core Advantage. Thank you thank you!

This program changed me from not being able to do a slow jog to being able to run at full speed with little to no pain in the 6th week. Would definitely recommend.

Fantastic programme! It has reduced my sons pain levels significantly and he can now train twice a week and play full games. He’s a happy 14 year old rugby player again.

Thank you to Core Advantage team for putting this program online so any kid around the world not only from Australia can benefit from it! After finishing the program my son is back on the pitch playing football with pain free! I would recommend this program to everyone who needs it!

Outstanding program highly recommend trying it. My twin boys completed the program every morning before school easy to follow instructions and it was super effective. Both boys were pain free half way through week 4 and have had no relapses since. Thats more than 5 weeks pain free!'

Our 10 year son was eventually diagnosed with Osgoods after struggling with severe knee pain for some time. As a keen sportsperson to be told that nothing could be done and physical activity would need to be limited was devastating to him and as parents we hated seeing him in such pain. We stumbled across "Core Advantage" by chance after refusing to believe that "doing nothing" was our only option - we are so glad that we did! We embarked upon the 7 week programme with some scepticism hardly daring to believe that results could be seen so quickly. However this was quickly displaced with relief and delight after seeing almost instantaneous results (day 3)! The programme requires commitment and dedication but the rewards far outweigh the effort. We have now completed the course and our son is pain free for the first time in months and able to join in with all of the sports that he loves. To see him so happy brings us so much joy - it has literally given him his life back. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts - this has made such a difference to our family. We will certainly recommend Core Advantage to anyone who finds themselves in a similar situation - you will not look back!'

This program really worked! My son has had really bad knee pain for years. This program was the only thing thats actually helped him. I'm so grateful I came across this and highly recommend to anyone thinking about giving it a try.'

My daughter is 14 years old she started with pain when she was 12 it was mild pain 6 months later she couldn’t even run she had to stop playing sports for a couple of months. She decided to go back to sports but it was painful only when she run. Finally we found this program actually the program found me i was in my Facebook page when this website appeared and decided to try it . I was a little concern cause i didn’t know if it was a safe website but i was so desperate to find something that could help my daughter that i decided to sign up. Its being 6 weeks and she is doing so much better and she finally enjoy running and playing volleyball and softball agaut.

Fantastic program! It has really helped my son to get back to soccer with confidence and no pain.

This really works I went from a 10/10 pain level to 2/10 pain over the course. No only that but I will continue the rolling as a standard routine from now on its been so effective. Thank you!

I first stumbled onto this program as I was searching for something to help my son with this new diagnosis of osgood schlatters syndrome. Every where I search it was stated that he will have to suffer through the pain until he was finish with puberty. This was devastating for my son to hear as track season was soon to start and he loves this sport. This program stated it was a 100% guaranteed. I bought it for my son even though I thought nothing is 100%. However this program is absolutely 100% guarantee. By the 5th week my son was experiencing no pain while doing the exercises. On his first meet in the 100 meters he came in third place and his coach states that he is one of the two fastest on his team. I am so happy I bought this program. It is truly amazing and I would advise anyone who has a child with this syndrome to give it a try and they or their child would not be disappointed.

Our son commenced the program with 8 out of 10 pain and was looking at a significant time on the sideline. With a diligent approach to a well-developed and easy-to-follow program he is now pain free after 6 weeks.

Amazing Results! Doctors gave us the typical treatment options but I knew there must be something better. Within 6 weeks he was 95% better and I cannot be happier with the results

Two years ago my 12 yr old son developed OSD. Our doctor said the only thing possible was rest and if it didnt get better he might have to quit sports. This was devastating news until I found Durham and Core Advantage online. What a savior! It took my son a couple of weeks longer (10 weeks) to return to sport pain free along with a couple of supportive emails from Durham along the way. Two years later my son has never looked back the only downtime he had was while going through the program. Last year he played at an elite level for the entire season without issue and continues to this day pain free. It has also led to some great habits. It's been two years and he still rolls and stretches everyday and has become way more efficient in his movement patterns. He was also accepted to a highly competitive sports centered high school. I cannot say enough about this program. When I was a teen my brother was casted because of his OSD and quit playing sports. I was afraid my son was going to meet a similar fate. But I am so thankful I found this program. I have recommended this to others and will never hesitate to give a full endorsement. Trust me there is light at the end of the tunnel and so many others have found success with this program. Everything you put in you will get back and more.'

My son is at the end of his last week. I’m not going into all the details you can see my previous posts for the hole story. (If it helps) Anyway I just wanted to thanks all you guys at Core Advance this is my second time with my Kid having OSD first the left and now the right knee the difference between the experience doing the 7 week course and doing what the Doctors told me a year and a half ago here in Dallas Tx is huge not even in the same ball park. So if you are like me 7 weeks ago that I saw the add did a little bit of research and said “what the hell? Nothing else seams to be working” You won’t regret it. I have become a messenger spreading the Word of Core Advantage. Again thanks to Core Advantage you have an excellent program. Peace ✌️ Ps: Yea my son is doing great 0 pain in the last weeks.

Just wanted to say thankyou to Jacob and everyone at CAAD. I honestly didnt hold much hope as my son just couldn't seem to do any kind of activity anymore. He loves his football (soocer) and was playing to a high standard. He then got diagnosed with OSD and his world turned upside down couldn't even train and basically gave up all hope got quite upset about the whole situation and said he would never play again. After starting a new high school they go and have trails when we are 4 weeks into the programme and he even said to me there is no point going. I told him to give it a go and just see and if it hurts and if it does stop but it will give us an idea if any of this is helping and let's just see what happens. He finished the trail which was an hour and didn't have to stop once and got selected you should have seen the smile on his face! It hurt the next day but after 48 hours hes back to normal. The programme does take a while each day as the weeks progress but wow it's worth it to see that smile back on his face. Thanks again for all you do :)'

The program helped my son a lot. Hes playing basketball again without missing practice or games.'

This has been the best program for my 12 year old son. Hes been suffering for a year with our physio basically diagnosing him and leaving us to it stating that he would ‘grow out’ of the issue (needless to say we now have a new physio). This program has literally allowed my son to gain his life back. He’s able to run without straight legs or in pain he can ride his bike again and is looking forward to the rugby season – which was cut short last year due to his chronic knee pain. He’s a super fit kid and not being able to run and do the things he loved was spiralling him towards a depressive state. This program quickly reduced his pain and got him back doing the things all kids should be doing. I can’t thank you enough! I just wish I had found this sooner. Amazing. Easy to follow format good explanations and simple video instructions and it WORKS! It seriously WORKS.'

Just writing to say that my Son who is 15 is looking forward to start the program and to finally get rid of the Osgood. He has been trying to rest it for a couple of weeks but to no hope. He was very happy when he heard about this and that he could be back to running in a few weeks. Thanks for making it so clear and easy to follow.

It’s hard to rate something that’s invaluable! If there was a 10 star rating this program would receive it from me in my opinion.

I happened upon this website and thought we’d take a chance on it and I am so glad we did.

Absolutely delighted that my son can now train & race without knee supports and more importantly without pain.

I used to dance when I was a teenager (and the dance required a lot of foot work so it created a lot of pressure on my knees) I got a bump under my left knee which didnt hurt at all but then I started having this pain when I played badminton regularly in a university club and I didn't have time to go to hospitals to get traditional treatment I had pain for nearly 2 months and I was then happy to find this article but I was hesitating if this would help me cause I was 21 years old at the time but I had to give it a try it was not a proper foam roller (some hard construction material) that I found but it still had a shape of a cylinder and I exercised every day for a week and a half the pain went away. Maybe this comment will encourage those who are older than 18 to try these exercises. Thank you! :)'

My 14yo daughter Kate started at Core Advantage 4 years ago to help cure Osgood Schlatters. It was gone in 6 weeks - it was such a relief that she had no more pain playing basketball. I made sure she rolled every day and she visited Core once a week. I strongly recommend this program.

This really helped my 13-year-old son who has had knee pain from Osgood Schlatter’s for a few years...

My son (who is not particularly active but certainly doesnt have a good running style and has grow A LOT in the last 6 months) has just been diagnosed with Osgood-Schlatters. Thank you! I'm so glad I found your website!'
