Now, you can treat runners with the support of medical research on running-related injuries. This running course highlights the role of biomechanics and training errors in running-related injuries. EMG study results illustrate the muscle activation patterns throughout the lower extremities during running. Treatment options feature evidence-based approaches for many common running injuries.

THERAPISTS LOVE THIS COURSE AND DESCRIBE IT AS "CONCISE BUT PACKED WITH INFO" AND VERY APPLICABLE TO TREATING RUNNERS!
 
COURSE OBJECTIVES:
• Describe risk factors for running-related injuries in triathletes.
• Explain the general ankle muscle activation pattern in running.
• List the ankle muscle with the greatest sustained activity and the one with
  the greatest increase in activity with increased pace.
• Describe the muscle activation sequence of the hip and knee muscles in
  running.
• Explain the gender differences in running economy.
• List important factors in training history of the runner.
• Identify types of anatomic and functional leg length differences.
• Describe effects of road/sidewalk/beach camber.
• Define biomechanical issues associated with plantar fasciitis.
• List risk factors for stress fractures.
• Describe foot examination tests and ankle stability tests.
• Explain contributing factors to medial tibial stress syndrome and exertional
  compartment syndrome.
• Explain purpose and outcome findings for orthotics.
• Describe research findings for shoe types matched to arch types.
• List findings regarding eccentric exercise for Achilles tendinopathy.
• Explain study findings regarding plantar fasciitis and stretching, 
  strengthening, orthotics, night splints, iontophoresis and low-dye taping.
• Describe benefits of agility and stabilization training for hamstring strains.
• Explain rationale for backward walking in treatment of PFPS.
