Services — Running injuries
Fix the load story, not just the sore spot.
Most running injuries are training-load stories with a biomechanics subplot. We treat both: calm the irritated tissue, find the capacity gap that let it happen, and rebuild your mileage on a schedule your bones and tendons can actually keep.
Who this is for
- Bone stress injuries (shin, foot, femur) after medical work-up
- Achilles, patellar, and proximal hamstring tendinopathy
- Patellofemoral pain and IT-band syndrome
- Plantar heel pain that outlasted new shoes
- Runners returning after months off — postpartum, post-injury, post-life
What we actually do
- 01 History-first triage: mileage, pace, sleep, fueling, and the three weeks before it hurt
- 02 Video gait review on the treadmill when mechanics matter to the diagnosis
- 03 Tissue-specific loading: heavy slow resistance for tendons, graded impact for bone
- 04 A written walk-run-rebuild progression with clear hold/advance rules
- 05 Strength work runners skip — calves, hips, and single-leg control
Honest timelines
Tendons adapt in weeks, bone in months. A typical bone-stress return runs 8–16 weeks depending on grade and site; tendinopathy programs usually show meaningful change by week 6. We tell you which curve you're on.
