Running
Every year, a quarter to half of all runners sustain an injury serious enough to require them to stop running, at least temporarily.
The load of running
While running, your body has to absorb enormous impacts; the load can rise to three or four times your own body weight.
In 90% of all cases these are injuries of the knee, lower leg, ankle or foot. Think of runner's knee, shin splints, plantar fasciitis (heel spur) and Achilles tendon complaints.
The podotherapeutic examination
The podotherapeutic examination is aimed at identifying the cause of the injury, but also at mapping out any risk factors for injuries developing.
The examination is suitable for any runner who wants to improve their performance, stay ahead of injuries or recover from one.
