What is a Running Assessment?

Conducted by our expert physiotherapists—who are highly trained in running biomechanics and human movement—this is a comprehensive, functional assessment of your technique and training habits. We use advanced analysis to look beyond the immediate pain and understand how your body moves in motion.

This detailed process includes:

• • • Video Gait Analysis: Slow-motion analysis of your running form to identify subtle deviations, weaknesses, and inefficiencies in your technique.
    • Training Load Analysis: Reviewing your current running frequency, intensity, and volume to ensure they are appropriate for your body’s capacity.
    • Musculoskeletal Screening: A hands-on assessment to identify deficits in strength, flexibility, and control that may be contributing to poor form or recurring injuries.
