About Injury Management
Injuries are a part of running we all have to accept. There are many different reasons that lead to injuries and in runners the most common area injured is the knee region, as it absorbs stress from above at the hip and pelvis region and below in terms of foot biomechanics. While there has been a big rise in tendinopathy injuries due to changes in footwear, biomechanical issues form office work and changes in training programmes that do not allow the body the time to adapt.
It is important to understand how you move and why you have suffered from an injury, aside from the obvious falling down a pothole in the pavement while out running. Let us help you manage your running injuries and niggles to get you into a better place.
