Optimize Your Running with DuPont Physical Therapy's running assessment
Common Running Issues
Regular running assessments can be instrumental in optimizing your performance, preventing injuries, and ensuring you’re getting the most out of your runs. At DuPont Physical Therapy, our specialized running assessment service is tailored to meet your individual needs, helping you run more efficiently and effectively.
Gait Abnormalities
Gait abnormalities denote deviations from the optimal biomechanical patterns observed during running. These irregularities, such as improper foot strike or excessive pronation, not only hinder performance but also increase the risk of injury. By identifying and addressing these abnormalities during the assessment, our specialized therapists can provide targeted interventions to optimize your running mechanics and prevent potential issues.
Muscle Imbalances
In a running assessment, muscle imbalances are identified as disparities in strength or flexibility between opposing muscle groups, which can lead to inefficiencies in running biomechanics and predispose individuals to pain or injury. Addressing these imbalances through targeted exercises and interventions during the assessment helps optimize muscle function and improve overall running performance.
Previous Injuries
In the context of a running assessment, previous injuries refer to any past musculoskeletal issues or traumas that may impact current running performance. By evaluating the site and severity of these injuries, our specialized therapists can develop tailored strategies to address any lingering issues, mitigate recurrence risk, and optimize your running mechanics for improved performance and injury prevention.
Our comprehensive approach to optimizing your running experience focuses on personalized treatment plans tailored to your specific needs and goals as a runner.
