RUN3D FOR RUNNING INJURIES

DATA DRIVEN SOLUTIONS

Leveraging the power of precise data for targeted treatment

Individualised treatment for lasting recovery


Running injuries are complicated, and result from a combination of underlying factors specific to you.

Successful treatment requires precisely identifying these factors in each unique case, a challenging task often eluding traditional approaches and leading to recurring issues.

Run3D, born out of the expertise of Oxford University scientists, offers a breakthrough solution.

With our state-of-the-art technology and scientifically-grounded protocols, we provide the meticulous and rigorous approach that is needed for successful treatment so you can return to the sport you love.

Trust us to guide you on your journey back to running, leaving no stone unturned in your recovery.

Run3D Assessment Pathway

Reason for Visit

Your clinician will take a history to understand your current and previous injuries, and your running goals.

Using cutting-edge technology, we equip you with 39 strategically placed reflective markers on your legs and shoes, mirroring the practices of specialist orthopaedic hospitals and elite sports performance centers.

Our state-of-the-art 3D motion capture cameras accurately measure the positions of these markers 200 times a second. This precise data enables us to evaluate the intricate movements of your pelvis, hips, knees and ankles during walking and running.

By measuring every detail, we uncover any deviations, imbalances or inefficiencies in your movement, enabling us to develop tailored treatment plans that address your unique needs.

Gait Analysis

Your clinician will ask you to warm-up on the treadmill and when you are ready we will start collecting data.

Run3D's advanced technology captures real-time measurements of your movement patterns, enabling us to immediately identify any asymmetries or abnormal patterns in your gait as you are running. Using Run3D, your clinician can see degrees of movement that cannot be seen by the naked eye.

During the assessment, your clinician may capture tests at different running speeds, or with different footwear, tailoring the process to your specific needs. If appropriate, they may provide gait re-education to help improve abnormal movement patterns.

Individualised care is always at the forefront of our approach, and your clinician will prioritise what is most appropriate for your unique case.

Musculoskeletal Testing

After your gait analysis, your clinician will carry-out a comprehensive set of objective clinical tests to precisely measure your strength, range of motion, alignment, and neuromuscular control.

These tests provide us with valuable data and complete our understanding of your movement patterns. By combining the results of these musculoskeletal tests with the detailed analysis of your gait, we gain thorough insight of how your body is moving and why it may be moving in this particular way.

All the data we have collected serves as the foundation of your individualised treatment program. We use the results to guide our decisions, pinpointing areas that require attention and developing targeted strategies to enhance your biomechanical function.

Report Review

Our expert clinician will review your report with you, piecing together all the information to gain a comprehensive understanding of your body's mechanics and using the data to create an individualised plan based on your results.

With the powerful insights provided by Run3D, we can pinpoint the underlying cause of your injury, which lays the foundations for an effective  rehabilitation plan for long-term recovery.

We use the results to provide you with individualised recommendations and strategies to address any imbalances, correct gait deviations and improve your biomechanical function.

We empower you with the information you need to optimise your movement, which paves the way for a successful rehabilitation journey.

Treatment & Recovery

The results of your assessment will be used to provide a data-driven treatment and rehabilitation programme. This might include strength and conditioning, home exercises, physiotherapy, footwear/orthotic recommendations, gait re-education or referral to another practitioner.

Our objective is to resolve your injuries and help you achieve your goals effectively. By combining the expertise of our clinicians with the insights gained from your Run3D assessment, we can build a comprehensive roadmap that guides your rehabilitation journey towards successful outcomes.

Your Run3D assessment marks the beginning of your recovery journey.

Trust the process and in our commitment to you as we work together to restore your musculoskeletal health.

Case Study

This case study summarises the recovery journey of a recreational runner with a long history of chronic bilateral calf and Achilles pain. Despite previous attempts at treatment, including soft tissue massage and Physiotherapy, his condition remained unresolved. Seeking a breakthrough, he turned to a Run3D clinic for a fresh approach.

The Run3D assessment identified the underlying issues contributing to his condition, including excessive plantar-flexion at toe-off and an ankle-dominant gait pattern, which originated from the position of his pelvis. To target the root cause, he underwent a focused 5-session gait retraining program at Run3D.

Following the gait retraining sessions, the runner successfully integrated the newly learned running pattern without any external prompts and most importantly was able to run without pain.
