Marathon injury rehabilitation

Running a marathon is an incredible achievement, but the journey to the finish line can take a toll on your body. From back pain to plantar fasciitis and everything in between, the path can be rocky. 

These injuries often result from overuse, poorly executed training techniques, or not enough recovery. Without good care, these injuries can sideline you and stop you from achieving your goals. 

At Technique Health & Fitness, we specialise in injury management for marathon runners. Whether you're dealing with a current injury or looking to prevent future ones, our tailored treatments focus on promoting healing, restoring strength, and enhancing performance. From hands-on therapies to guided exercise programs, we’re here to keep you running strong.

Introducing benchmarking

Understanding your body’s strengths and limitations is essential for optimising performance and preventing injuries. Our benchmarking process provides an in-depth assessment of key factors like

  • Strength

  • Endurance

  • Flexibility

  • Movement mechanics

It helps us guide treatment based on your individual needs. Whether you're training for your first marathon or are a seasoned athlete, benchmarking helps identify potential risks and track your progress over time.
