Reviews for the Core Advantage Osgood Schlatter & Severs Programs

Alles super gut geklappt [Everything went really well.]

Found the program very useful and am now in a better place.

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!).

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 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.

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.

The program helped with Harrison's pain but he was never pain free and still suffers and is limited with not being able to kneel down at all on his knees as causes him so much pain. We have restarted the program many times but he is still in pain with flare ups. He is now 14 so just hoping when he stops growing will help. UPDATE: Thank you for the honest feedback and for giving the program a really good go with multiple restarts. Partial progress is still progress, even when it's not the full result you're hoping for. Rapid periods of growth can definitely play a role in recovery rate, so keep up the hard work.

I’m following the program 4 weeks and have no progress. I still have same pain when I play football. I want my money back! [UPDATE]: Hi Ivan, we will gladly refund your money right away, I have also sent you an email and we will help you out with processing the refund immediately, I've also included a few follow up questions regarding your knee pain and maybe some program modifications that we can get you back on track and back to playing Football - Jacob

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.

I'm finishing up week 3 and my pain is substantially down already, and I have been able to continue running.
