How We Help Runners

We commonly treat people training for a marathon or events, people who are returning to running and people new to running and want to run laps around Central Park Malvern or Hedgeley Dene gardens. Many running injuries we see are over-use injuries, and we find the best management involves:

  • Assessment of flexibility and strength, and addressing any deficiencies
  • Revising and guiding on running plans- making sure you build correctly
  • Assessing your technique and prescribing specific running drills
  • Prescribing appropriate exercises for runners
