Running Analysis in Liverpool

Running Statistics

Did you know that up to 79% of runners will experience a lower limb injury at some point? While some of these injuries are traumatic, most are due to overuse. The shin and knee are the most commonly affected areas. Running injuries often stem from previous injuries, incomplete rehabilitation, or a sudden increase in running volume. A frequent issue is that runners may not have the necessary robustness to handle the physical demands of increased running distances.

Your Running Analysed

An In-depth Running Assessment

Biomechanical and Injury Screening

The initial process starts off with a history taking of your running, accounting for current or previous injuries. We then perform a detailed biomechanical assessment in the treatment room.

Treadmill Analysis

Once we have a firm understanding of you the athlete and your injuries. We then use 3D motion capture software to video and analyse your running style. We look at various data points such as running metrics that include cadence, pace, speed, vertical oscillation and power.

Shoe Analysis

We analyse your running shoes and your feet, both on and off the treadmill. It is here we analyse wear patterns, and whether your running shoe is suitable for running style or injury. We will also be able to recommend the correct shoe to match your foot type and running discipline using our running shoe matrix.

Running Rehabilitation

By the end of your assessment and anaylsis. We will provide you with a bespoke running rehabilitation program using our rehabilitation software application. As part of your rehabilitation, you may also be given running metrics to improve your running, running based drills, and exercises to improve your running robustness.

Our Running Services

You love running. But you don't love the aches, pains and niggles!

If you are anything like our clients you love running. Whether that's a full marathon or a Saturday morning Park Run, the buzz is addictive! You feel amazing when you run and it is an important part of your life.

However, you don't love the niggling pains or recurring issues that keep rearing their ugly head. Or that frustrating cycle of running, getting injured, having treatment and then gingerly returning to running - only to get injured again.

That's exhausting, depressing even and stops you from fully engaging in the sport you love.

I get it, but, it doesn't have to be that way!
