Running Technique

Improve Your Running

A chiropractor can play a key role in improving running technique by addressing biomechanical issues, preventing injuries, and enhancing overall performance. Regular chiropractic care can be a valuable component of a runner’s training regimen, helping to ensure they can run efficiently and safely.

Gait Analysis: Can analyze your running gait (the way you run) and identify any imbalances or irregularities in your stride. These issues can often lead to inefficiency or injury if not addressed.

Lower Limb Injury Prevention

There are some simple ways that you can identify causes or risks of injury in running.

A number of studies

have shown if we change a few small aspects about someone’s running/walking
technique, they are less likely to be injured in running sports. This can be assessed
in 2 ways:

  1. cross-over gait
  2. over-striding gait

‘CROSS-OVER’ GAIT

When we walk and run, it is important that we do not cross our legs over each other. It is important and effective to run with your feet under your hips, but crossing over can lead to hip, knee and ankle problems. They suggest the concept of running on a line or track, but not allowing the foot/big toe to cross over the track.
