BIOMECHANICAL STUDY OF THE FOOT. RUNNING INJURIES

Running has become very trendy in recent years; more and more people are going running, increasing the number of injuries caused by this sport.

Most runners don’t realise that their technique may be incorrect or that they have a problem with their feet or their gait that could result in significant injuries in a short space of time.

For these reasons and because of the increasing number of running injuries, experts recommend that amateur and professional runners complete a biomechanical study of their foot or their gait. This study can prevent possible injuries, thus perfecting their technique and allowing them to run better and for more years.

Podoactiva Andorra’s biomechanical study of the foot can detect problems during gait problems in the lower limbs of runners and can recommend the appropriate footwear for each case, thus preventing the most common injuries of the skeletal and muscular system: feet, knees, and hips.

It is recommended for both amateur and professional runners, especially beginners.
