Motus Physiotherapy’s own Darren Dukes (with an assist from Trevor Millar) explains how a running gait analysis works, and how he uses it to help runners of all skill levels – especially those with persistent running injuries. In this video, he addresses several common technical running errors, and gives suggestions around how to correct them.
While video running gait analysis can provide valuable insights into running biomechanics, we believe it should be used in combination with other clinical assessments and tools, such as a detailed history and physical examination. By including all those components in our running gait analysis, we can develop a specific plan for each runner to get them back on the road (or track, or trails)!
