Lately I have been referring to a significant number of new patient cases as "isolation feet".
As activity levels rise across the country it is important that we remember to ready ourselves for an injury-free sporting revival.
Here are a few tips to help reduce your risk:
#1 Check your footwear for signs of uneven wear and ensure correct lacing is performed
#2 Preactivate muscles and ensure joints are well mobilized
#3 Gradual. Gradual. Gradual. Deconditioning shouldn't be ignored. Avoid trying to replicate exertion levels that you were familiar with pre-isolation.
If you are unsure or in need of guidance with return to running, correct foot wear choices, optimising strength and performance or simply want foot and lower limb advice contact the clinic through our page.
Remember have fun and enjoy the restrictions being lifted from week to week.
