Running Assessments

Does Running Cause Hip & Knee Damage?

Debunking the myths on how running affects your body.

Running does NOT cause hip and knee deterioration. However, it is very common for people to struggle with determining if they are running with appropriate form and/or what aspect of running is causing their pain. There are a lot of patients who simply say, “Oh, I can’t run because of blah, blah, blah.” Now, that may be true for certain people – but many people simply need to have a running assessment and be given some guidance on what they need to wear or do differently to run successfully and comfortably.
