Shin discomfort often shows up when training load increases faster than your body can keep up.

And while many runners turn to stretching, icing, or simply resting—those fixes don’t get to the root.

At Shiraj Physio, we look deeper.
➡️ Force-plate hop testing
➡️ 3D gait analysis
➡️ Mobility and strength data

This clip shows one way we measure how the lower leg handles stress during movement—because overstriding, weak soleus control, or poor hip timing can all play a role.

Don’t just power through it. Let’s test, not guess.

Having the right shoes plays a role but abnormally loading your forefoot plays a bigger role than shoes do.

At Shiraj Physio, we look at the why—like limited toe mobility, lessened foot and calf control, or being undertrained to tolerate fore-foot striking.

We test these factors with gait analysis, hop tests, and mobility screens—so your plan is built on facts, not guesses.
If the ball of your foot has been talking, let’s listen with the right tools.

Shin splints don’t always start with sharp discomfort. Sometimes, it’s the subtle signs that show up first: your stride feels off, your lower legs feel tight after training, or one leg just isn’t as stable on jump tests.

These issues can increase the force your legs have to absorb—and it’s usually the feet and shins that take the hit.

We use force plate analysis to look and assess how your entire lower limb manages load. From ankle stiffness to shock absorption, these metrics can give insight into how your foot/ankle handles load, and if you could be at risk for injury down the road.

Objective, DATA DRIVEN insights yield better interventions and programming to ensure success in your running journey.

𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘃𝘀. 𝗠𝗶𝗱-𝗥𝘂𝗻 𝗕𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴: 𝗞𝗻𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗗𝗶𝗳𝗳𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲.

What you feel—and when you feel it—can tell us exactly what your body needs.

🌅 𝗠𝗼𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗗𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁
- Irritated tissue going from prolonged shortening to RAPID stretch with first steps
- severe discomfort at the heel or arch that eases with movement
- Usually linked to some issues running up the chain

🏃‍♂️ 𝗠𝗶𝗱-𝗥𝘂𝗻 𝗱𝗶𝘀𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁
- Sharp discomfort that builds during your run
- Often caused by faulty loading mechanics
- A sign your foot isn't absorbing shock efficiently

These two patterns call for different solutions—and at Shiraj Physio, we test your ability to handle running. No Guessing. Force plate data, gait analysis, and a full assessment help us create your exact recovery blueprint.

Plantar Fasciitis Isn’t Just a Foot Problem.

It’s easy to focus on where you feel the discomfort—but the real culprits often start elsewhere.

➡️ Weak calves
➡️ Stiff Ankles
➡️ Hip stability issues

We see this pattern all the time in runners and active adults. What feels like a local foot issue is often a chain reaction of mobility and strength limitations upstream.

At Shiraj Physio, we use strength testing and force analysis to pinpoint exactly what’s driving the overload—so your recovery plan isn’t just about rest and hope.

Let’s stop chasing discomfort and start finding problems.

𝗪𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻’𝘁 𝗷𝘂𝘀𝘁 𝗴𝘂𝗲𝘀𝘀—w𝗲 𝘁𝗲𝘀𝘁.
Hop testing and calf endurance testing give us data that helps predict Achilles stress before it becomes a bigger issue.

We often see runners with “tight” Achilles that are really just underprepared.
Weak calves and poor reactive strength = more stress at the tendon.

Strong calves = happy Achilles.
This is why we test, track, and train smarter.
