Running Physio

So you like to run? Well you've come to the right place. As runners ourselves, we know what you put your body through. Running injuries often fall into the category of overuse injuries but depending on your level of athleticism there can be a lot to consider. Common running injuries include:

• Runner's knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome) 

• Jumper's knee (patellar tendinopathy)
