Description

Effective treatment of running injuries is not achieved through a copy and paste plan of care.

Because you’re treating Cliff who competes in ultra marathons every month and is struggling with shin splints from long periods of consistent impact. He needs quick acting tools to recover between events.

And you also treat Amanda who casually jogs a mile twice a week pushing her baby in a stroller. She complains of persistent low back pain postpartum and simply wants to continue to run so she can meet her fitness aspirations.

Different runners – different needs - connected by a common motivation – to get back “on track” as quickly as possible!

This training has just the guidance you need to effectively treat Cliff, Amanda, or even the next Usain Bolt!

Join today and develop effective strategies to rapidly treat common running-related injuries, prevent deconditioning and re-injury, and improve linear speed and strength.

Purchase today, you’ll be sure to walk away with practical approaches and fresh techniques to implement immediately!
