Running-related injuries
ncreasing your training volume too quickly is a classic trap, but running injuries are often about more than just simple overload. Factors like running technique, biomechanical imbalances, footwear, and recovery all play a key role. Our physiotherapists and chiropractors look at the big picture to help you run pain-free and avoid unwanted breaks from your training.

Physiotherapist or chiropractor — which should you choose?
Both treat running-related musculoskeletal conditions, so you can't book the "wrong" appointment. But here's a simple guideline for runners.
Choose a physiotherapist if you:
- have a running injury that has built up over time
- want to understand what is causing the problem and get a training program
- need help with running technique, strength and progression back to running
Choose a chiropractor if you:
- have acute pain after a run
- feel "locked" or stiff in a joint and want quick pain relief
- want quick diagnostic clarification, need a referral for imaging (e.g. MRI) or need sick leave
