Whether you're training for your first run or chasing a PB, a running assessment gives us a clear picture of how you actually move — and a plan to help you move better. Here's what a session looks like.
We talk through your running history, goals, and any injuries you're managing.
You run, sometimes filmed, while we watch your posture, stride, and technique.
Walk through what we found: what's working well, and what might be driving pain or holding back your pace.
Leave with clear, practical changes to work on, and a plan if futher treatment or programs would help.
A running assessment analyses your gait, loading patterns, cadence, and movement mechanics to identify what might be causing injury or limiting your performance. If you're a runner dealing with recurring issues — shin pain, knee pain, hip pain — or just want to run more efficiently, it's well worth the investment. You don't need to be currently injured to benefit.
Our running assessments take 45 minutes — enough time to properly assess, discuss findings, and give you practical guidance to take away so that you can improve your running efficiency and performance right away.
No. You don’t need to be injured to see a physiotherapist. Many people book for movement and strength screening, injury prevention or performance optimisation. If you have a history of recurring injuries, regular “tune-up” sessions can also help address stiffness and small issues before they become bigger ones.
Yes. Movement screening, prehabilitation, and load management advice are all part of what we do. We'd rather help you avoid injury in the first place than see you after one. We utilise VALD performance testing equipment to objectively identify the areas you need to improve on to minimise your risk of injury. If you're not assessing, you're guessing!
Run better, prevent injury, and get closer to your goals. Book at Frenchs Forest or Narrabeen.
