Common Running Injuries We Treat

Running injuries often happen gradually, building up over time due to repetitive stress, but they can also happen suddenly. Some of the most common include:

  • Runner’s knee (patellofemoral pain syndrome) – pain at the front of the knee
  • Shin splints – aching or sharp pain along the shin bone
  • Achilles tendinopathy – pain and stiffness in the back of the ankle
  • Plantar fasciitis – heel pain that’s worse with the first steps in the morning
  • IT band syndrome – pain along the outside of the knee or thigh
  • Muscle strains – hamstring, calf, or quadriceps strains from training or racing

How We Treat Runners

Every runner is unique, and so is every injury. That’s why we create a personalized plan based on your body, your training, and your goals.

Frequently Asked Questions

Don’t see an answer to your question?

Not always. In many cases, you can keep running at a modified intensity while we work on your recovery. We’ll help you find the right balance.

It depends on the type of injury and how long it’s been bothering you. Some improve quickly, while others may need more structured rehab. Our goal is always to get you running safely as soon as possible.

Absolutely. By addressing muscle imbalances, improving running form, and giving you a tailored strength program, we can help reduce your risk of recurring injuries.

Usually not. Physiotherapists are trained to assess and diagnose running injuries without the need for scans in most cases. If we think imaging would help, we’ll guide you through that process.
