Running AnalysisIn Fort Collins, Windsor & surrounding cities
At Colorado in Motion, we want to keep you running!
In addition to a specifically designed exercise program to make you a faster and stronger runner, we also offer a running gait analysis. Using the latest technology, we are able to evaluate how you run and make recommendations for improving your running speed and efficiency, while also reducing your risk of injury.
Additionally, this assessment can be a valuable tool to help treat many running conditions, including:
- Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (Runner’s Knee)
- IT Band Syndrome
- Shin Splints
- Chronic Low-Back Pain
- Chronic Hamstring Strain
- Plantar Fasciitis
- Heel Pain
- Achilles Tendinitis/Tendonosis
Video analysis allows our expert clinicians to assist runners to enhance proficiency and decrease the risk of future injury. In addition to a full examination, video analysis allows us to give the patient-specific recommendations with individual exercise to correct faulty mechanics and improve running performance.
Heel-first contact leads to increased stress throughout the knee and ankle, which leads to common conditions, including patellofemoral pain syndrome.
Significant “lateral whip” creates increased stress at the knee.
Increased hip drop from decreased hip strength can contribute toward knee, ankle, and plantar heel pain.
