Do Cleats Improve Your Performance?
by Anna Heston • July 15, 2021Athletic shoes with spikes sticking out from the sole are known as cleats.

A gait assessment is simply a professional observing your gait and drawing conclusions about the manner in which you walk.

But not everyone tracks their running distance that closely, and 300-500 miles is still a big range, so it’s important to look for the signs.
Hallux Rigidus Treatment

Peroneal Tendonitis Treatment
by Anna Heston • April 29, 2021Although anyone can experience peroneal tendonitis, it is more prevalent among runners. Because these tendons help to stabilize the ankle when it is bearing weight, as well as help to stabilize the arch of the foot, they are well situated for overuse injuries.
