Running Rehabilitation

Building directly on the skills developed in the two-day Biomechanical Running Analysis course, this advanced intensive focuses on the next critical step: how to translate movement analysis into an effective rehabilitation and retraining strategy.

This course is designed for professionals who want to move beyond identifying inefficient or destructive running patterns and confidently guide athletes through the process of rebuilding a resilient, pain-free, and efficient running technique after injury.

You will learn how to construct a clear rehabilitation structure, continuously reassess movement, and retrain technique using the principles of biomechanics, coordination, strength development, mobility, and the DMS (Dynamic Movement Skills) methodology.

Course Focus

This two-day intensive bridges the gap between analysis and application.

You will learn how to:

• Build structured rehabilitation programs based on biomechanical findings

• Retrain running technique after injury

• Transition athletes from pain-driven compensation patterns to efficient movement

• Integrate DMS methodology into rehabilitation and return-to-run protocols

• Continuously analyze and adjust movement throughout the rehab process

• Develop coordination, strength, and mobility within a running-specific context

• Improve posterior chain activation and movement sequencing

• Restore elastic, spring-based interaction with the ground

• Guide athletes safely from early-stage rehab to performance reintegration

Core Course Content

1. From Analysis to Action

• Translating gait analysis into a structured rehabilitation plan

• Identifying primary vs. secondary compensations

• Prioritizing movement corrections

• Understanding when to change technique — and when not to

2. Running Retraining After Injury

• Common injury patterns and their biomechanical roots

• Rebuilding landing mechanics and ground interaction

• Restoring hip extension and posterior chain engagement

• Correcting over-striding and braking patterns

• Reducing lumbar overload and excessive rotation

3. The DMS Methodology in Rehabilitation

• Dynamic Movement Skills as a neurological stimulus

• Improving coordination and timing

• Re-establishing cross-lateral movement patterns

• Progressive hopping and landing drills

• Developing soft, elastic, controlled ground contact

  
  

4. Strength, Mobility & Neurological Integration

• When mobility is limiting – and when stability is the issue

• Strength development for running-specific demands

• Single-leg stability and pelvic control

• Integrating strength work into the return-to-run process

• Nervous system stimulation to improve movement quality

  
  

5. Continuous Movement Analysis

• Real-time reassessment during drills

• Adjusting exercises based on feedback

• Coaching cues that change mechanics immediately

• Identifying signs of overload or regression

  
  

What You Will Gain

By the end of the course, you will be able to:

• Design a structured running rehabilitation pathway

• Confidently retrain injured runners out of painful or inefficient techniques

• Apply DMS drills strategically rather than generically

• Improve movement coordination and elastic return

• Develop individualized strength and mobility strategies

• Recognize when an athlete is ready to progress

• Integrate analysis and intervention into one continuous process

  
  

Who This Course Is For

This course is open exclusively to participants of the Running Biomechanical Analysis Course (3–4 October 2026).

It is ideal for:

• Physiotherapists

• Sports therapists

• Running coaches

• Personal trainers

• Performance specialists working with injured runners

  
  

Why This Course Matters

Many professionals can identify biomechanical errors.Far fewer can systematically retrain them.

This intensive provides the missing link: a clear, structured methodology for guiding runners from injury back to strong, efficient, and resilient performance.

If the first course teaches you how to see movement,this course teaches you how to change it.

Join us for two intensive, practical days dedicated to mastering the art of running rehabilitation and technique retraining.
