What Is Running Gait Analysis?

Running gait analysis is a detailed assessment of how your body moves when you run. It looks at how your feet, legs, hips, and upper body work together with each stride.

At Motion, we use video analysis and expert assessment to identify movement patterns, imbalances, and areas that may be putting extra strain on your body.

This allows us to pinpoint the root cause of issues, rather than just treating symptoms, helping you run more efficiently and with less risk of injury.

Benefits & Who It’s For

Running gait analysis is ideal for anyone who wants to improve performance, reduce injury risk, or better understand their running technique.

It may help if you:

Experience recurring injuries like shin splints or knee pain
Want to improve running efficiency and performance
Are returning to running after injury
Feel discomfort or imbalance when running
Are training for an event or increasing mileage

Our team works with runners across Blackpool and the Fylde Coast, helping them move better, train smarter, and stay consistent.

What to Expect

Your session will involve video analysis of your running technique, allowing us to assess key areas such as foot strike, alignment, posture, and overall movement.

We’ll talk you through the findings in a clear, simple way, highlighting what’s working well and what could be improved.

You’ll then receive a personalised plan, which may include exercises, technique adjustments, and practical advice to help you improve your running and reduce the risk of injury.
