Running Assessment

BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENT FOR RUNNERS IN DIDSBURY

How to prevent running and cycling injuries?

Your Physio can look at your body type, posture, muscle length and strength to ensure optimal mechanics for walking, cycling, running, pretty much anything you want to do regularly - even playing the guitar!


Repetitive Strain issues are those niggles that come and go but once they settle in can limit your activity. Over training and over loading certain areas of the body are usually caused by instability and overuse of certain body mechanics.


This is Jo's passion and this is what she is highly trained to do with specialised knowledge of sporting requirements, musicianship, or working related loads. Having your weak spots identified and corrected with a prescribed exercise programme, can diminish your risk of injury patterns, promote efficiency and improve your performance. This may result in reduction in symptoms, improved times and metrics.



What to bring to our Didsbury running assessment?

  • We'll take a history from you to find out about your current sports and if you are carrying any injuries or niggles
  • We'll ask you about your current training schedule and your goals for the run / cycle / walk
  • Bring your trainers that you are using to train (this may be more than one pair)
  • Bring any insoles that you have been prescribed in the past
  • Any stats you have from your devices might be helpful too
  • Wear shorts so we can see your legs easily
  • We'll give you a thorough assessment and provide you with advice and recommendations, and treatments if needed
  • We'll prescribe a programme to boost your ability and reduce the risk factors to injury
