Running Injuries
Have you picked up a running injury and are seeking swift, natural treatment to help you get back on the track as soon as possible? At Thorpes Physiotherapy located in Sandhurst, we specialise in diagnosing, rehabilitating, and maintaining running-related injuries to ensure you receive the highest level of care for a quick and effective recovery.
The Impact Of Running Injuries...
Dealing with running injuries can be incredibly frustrating. Not only does the pain limit your ability to stay active, but it also affects your daily life. Persistent discomfort can hinder routine activities, disrupt sleep, and lower your overall quality of life. The inability to engage in the activities you love can lead to feelings of depression, strain relationships, and contribute to significant stress and anxiety. The psychological impact of being sidelined can often be more challenging than the physical limitations of a running injury.

Ineffective Treatments
You may have already tried painkillers or injections to alleviate the pain, but these treatments only mask the symptoms without addressing the underlying cause. You might have been advised to rest your injury to avoid causing any further damage, and whilst this may seem like a logical solution, rest alone can lead to muscle weakness and joint stiffness, making rehabilitation more difficult.
Misconceptions About Running Injuries
Many runners initially believe their injuries result from aging or are told by doctors that such issues are to be expected. While age can negatively impact stamina and endurance, proper attention to running technique, conditioning, and overall health can significantly reduce the risk of injury, regardless of age.

Our Commitment to Runners
At Thorpes Physiotherapy, we are committed to helping you enjoy an active and pain-free running experience for as long as possible. Our tailored treatment programs have helped countless runners recover from injury and ensure they remain pain-free. We do this through our dedicated Run Lab service, available at our Sandhurst and Fleet locations.
Run Lab: Tailored for Runners
Run Lab is our unique, specialised service for runners which uses the latest technology to gather data about the individual’s running style and biomechanics. It comprises three parts:
Vi-Move Analysis: Our state-of-the-art, wireless sensors are placed on the body, enabling biomechanical information to be fed back to our computer software.
Slow Motion Video: We film you running and slow it down to 1/8th of the real-time speed, which then enables us and you to analyse all aspects of your running style.
Biomechanical Tests: From analysing the latest research, we have devised a series of tests looking at muscle strength and flexibility to highlight any possible weak areas that need addressing.
The whole procedure takes one hour, and you leave with a printed report of this information to take home and an action plan to address any issues found.
A course of treatment may be required or a strengthening programme issued. Most patients will then be reviewed 4-6 weeks after the initial consultation using the same testing methods to determine improvements.
