What It Is and Who It’s For
Running gait analysis combines visual and video assessment of your running technique with functional exercise testing, looking at strength, control and movement patterns that influence how you run. From this, you get a personalised exercise plan aimed at your specific findings, whether that means improving cadence, addressing a strength imbalance, or building resilience ahead of a training block. It suits runners at any level: beginners wanting to start well, regular runners managing a recurring ache, and more experienced runners preparing for a race or coming back after injury. You do not need to be currently injured to benefit, many runners use gait analysis proactively before increasing mileage.
How we treat you
What to expect at your first visit
Your assessment starts with a conversation about your running history, current training and any pain or niggles you are managing. You will then be filmed running, typically on a treadmill, so your physiotherapist can review your technique, cadence and movement pattern in detail. Alongside the video assessment, your physiotherapist will carry out functional strength and movement testing relevant to running. You will leave with clear feedback on what was found and a personalised exercise plan to work on, whether as a standalone piece of work or as part of wider rehabilitation.

What our patients say
“I cannot recommend Joana highly enough. From my first appointment, Joana was professional, knowledgeable and genuinely invested in my recovery. She took the time to thoroughly assess my injury, explained the cause and created a tailored plan which resulted in a full recovery.”
Posted on Google“Joana is a wonderful physio! She guided me through my entire rehabilitation following ankle surgery. I started out in a wheelchair, and within just a handful of weeks, I was back to exercising thanks to her extensive hands-on treatment.”
Posted on Google“Sajj is honestly second to none! I'm a runner and work in finance so suffer from various pains from hip bursitis to neck pain due to stress and everything in between… Sajj (unlike many physios) takes a holistic approach and really reads into the root cause.”
