We start by talking about your running history, current symptoms, training routine, previous injuries, and goals.
Your physiotherapist will then take you through different movements related to running. We want to see how you control each leg, transfer your weight, absorb load, and move through the different components of a running stride.
We often assess you running overground because it allows us to see how your whole body moves naturally through space. A treadmill can also be used when it is the better option for you.
During the assessment, we may try different cues and techniques to see how they change the way you run. You will leave with practical recommendations, which may include running drills, corrective exercises, training changes, footwear considerations, or physiotherapy treatment.
