Osteopathic treatment of runner's injuries
A lot of my patients run as part of their exercise regime, however they quickly sustain a running injury as they start off too hard or don’t know that there are ways to run well technique-wise. On that note, it’s funny how we’re taught how to play sports from cricket to swimming but we’re not taught how to run!
A patient of mine recently put me on to Jae Gruenke. Jae is a Feldenkraus practitioner, running technique expert (who has worked with a number of top Olympian runners) and founder of the Balanced Runner. Have a look at the Balanced Runner website – www.balancedrunner.com – for top tips on running technique and also this you tube video where Jae discusses how to solve your running injuries and lots more:
