Run Analysis & Technique Training
Why is run analysis so important?
“Just don’t run” isn’t a real solution if you’re having pain.
Here’s the deal. The majority of running injuries occur from a combination of instability and faulty technique. Consider that running is essentially thousands of mini hops on each leg. You must be able to control the way your trunk and legs land on the ground to reduce impact and ultimately prevent running injuries. Small and simple adjustments to your form can create a significant reduction in joint compression and muscle strain. Many of our clients experience a bonus of increased speed due to improved efficiency.
Running is our specialty at Resurgent Sports Rehab. From our quick screen to our full Medical Run Analysis, we look forward to helping you run strong, safe, and injury-free.

Why we use Video Run Analysis:
Slow-Motion video analysis can determine faulty mechanics that can be the source of your pain. We analyze 3 views and assess the following:
- Cadence
- Low back and pelvic control
- Footstrike
- Stride length
- Trunk position
- Knee alignment
- Foot and ankle mechanics (excessive pronation, supination)
- Vertical displacement
When you participate in a video run analysis, you will be asked to run on and off a treadmill for a few minutes at the speed that is causing your pain. A recording will be taken of your side, front, and back. Our movement analysis software will then slow down each recording to pinpoint the pathomechanics that are causing an injury as well as which ones could use efficiency improvement.
