We use a large variety of Running injuries come in a variety locations and irritations, Running is a great way to get fit and relieve stress strategies to get runners back to doing what they love. Today I would like to discuss the importance of video gait analysis. The harmful movement patterns that arise from the effort required to meet time & pace training targets often lays the foundation for injury and re-injury. Many of these patterns can't be seen without slowing the motion down via a frame by frame analysis otherwise their presence goes undetected by the runner and their peers. The frame by frame analysis allows targeted prescription of muscle rebalancing exercises and " form fixes" that are practiced during your run. This approach can dramatically reduce joint forces and change a high impact running form to a smooth gliding running technique that allows you to enjoy those great physical, social and mental benefits of running without sacrificing your joint health. Contact our office if you would like a spring gait analysis & form fix.
