Running Program: Specialized Treatment for Runners & Endurance Athletes

At Well Motion Physiotherapy & Allied Health, we offer a Running Program tailored specifically to help runners and endurance athletes prevent injuries, enhance performance, and reach their full potential. Our team of skilled sports physiotherapists specializes in movement analysis and injury prevention, providing you with the expertise to run safely, stay healthy, and break your personal records.

How Physical Therapy Can Help Runners

Running is one of the most popular forms of exercise, with more than 40 million runners in the United States alone. However, over 45% of these runners experience at least one overuse injury during their training. A staggering 90% of these injuries affect areas such as the toes, feet, ankles, legs, knees, and hips. Many of these injuries are preventable with the right approach to movement mechanics, strength training, and proper footwear.

Common running injuries include:

  • Runner’s Knee (Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome)
  • Achilles Tendinitis
  • Hamstring Injuries
  • Plantar Fasciitis
  • Shin Splints
  • Iliotibial (IT) Band Syndrome
  • Stress Fractures

While running injuries can be common, most are non-contact injuries and largely preventable with proper training, body mechanics, and attention to form.

  1. Comprehensive Gait Analysis
  2. Movement Assessment
    We’ll carefully evaluate the mobility, stability, strength, and flexibility of key movement patterns. This includes an in-depth look at your hip, knee, and ankle motion and an evaluation of your leg symmetry, ground reaction force, and contact time for each leg.
  3. Customized Injury Prevention Plan
    Based on your assessment, we’ll develop a personalized treatment plan to address any imbalances or weaknesses that may be putting you at risk for injury. This plan will focus on strengthening key muscle groups, improving flexibility, and correcting any dysfunctional movement patterns.

    Proper footwear plays a crucial role in preventing injuries and ensuring optimal running performance. Our physiotherapists may assess your foot alignment and recommend appropriate footwear or orthotics to better support your unique needs.
  5. Progress Monitoring
    We’ll track your running progress over time, including metrics such as steps per minute, average speed, and total distance. Regular check-ins will ensure you’re progressing safely and effectively toward your goals.
