RUNNING BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENTS
ELITE PERFORMANCE CLINIC
RUNNING ASSESSMENTS
Running assessments are for anyone looking to improve their running efficiency, speed and to address or prevent the causes of injuries.
At Okinawa Physio, we have been working with elite professional and amateur runners for many years. Our practice principals Bevan and Vanessa Colless have raced as elite amateurs for many years and have both raced the Hawaii Ironman multiple times.
RUNNING INJURIES
We treat a full range of running injuries including ankle pain, calf muscle pain, hamstring injuries, hip pain, knee pain, lower back pain and mid back pain. Understanding movement of the whole body in relation to running and the laws of motion are required for efficient and effective running. We offer biomechanic assessments for athletes looking to improve their performance and prevent injuries from occurring.
OUR APPROACH
Our physiotherapists assess your individual running mechanics and recommend changes depending on the type of runner you are and the events you are targeting. We also recommend specific programs to assist in the management of any ongoing problems to get you back to running.
After the consultation, you will receive a report and an individually prescribed exercise program through an app that will guide you through your targeted program like a personal trainer at home.
Please bring the following for the running assessment:
Current running shoes (racing flats if using)
Orthotics (if using)
Shorts/tights
Running top/singlet/crop-top
Our running biomechanical assessment will take 90 minutes. A report and training program is included.
