PHYSIOTHERAPY FOR RUNNERS

To run further

By physiotherapists from Physio Plateau.

PHYSIOTHERAPY SPECIFIC TO RUNNING

The running physiotherapy service is suited for all types of runners. Whether you are a beginner or elite, whether you do road or trail running, we can help you. Indeed, the musculoskeletal assessment, the analysis of the running pattern and the identification of risk factors make it possible to prevent as well as recover from an injury related to running, as well as to optimize performance.

Of course, all of our therapists are qualified to treat sports injuries that could occur with running. On the other hand, if you are looking for specific prevention, performance or optimization advice, this service is for you! With our professionals trained by La Clinique du Coureur, Physio Plateau will help you run as far as you want.

What to expect from your first session?

During your first visit for a physiotherapy running assessment, the physiotherapist will begin with a series of questions to guide the evaluation.

Next, tests will be performed to determine, among other things, your strength, flexibility and motor control. Subsequently, the observation of your running pattern on the treadmill will be carried out using video analysis.

The therapist will explain the results of the assessment so that you can be as independent as possible in achieving your goals or resolving your pain. A treatment plan will be presented to you, possibly including a personalized running and/or exercise program, shoe recommendations and other therapeutic modalities. Follow-ups will be suggested if necessary.
