Our Running Physiotherapy Services:

1. Comprehensive Running Assessments: Our physiotherapists perform comprehensive biomechanical running assessments to analyse your running mechanics, gait, and movement patterns. Through video analysis and a thorough evaluation, we identify any areas of concern and provide personalized recommendations to optimise your running technique and prevent potential injuries.

2. Strength Training Classes for Runners

   TPM Running Townsville holds weekly Strengthening sessions for runners. Runners need a different strength-training program from your standard gym goer. Instead of pushing weight away from the body, runners need to focus on targeting the key muscles which will keep you balanced and moving forward.
