Brief Summary:
Runners often experience acute/chronic pain due to pre-existing structural somatic dysfunction and/or acquired various overuse injuries of the lower extremity, specifically affecting the ligaments, tendons, muscles and bones. Common structural and function dysfunctions include but are not limited to patellofemoral pain syndrome (PFPS), Achilles tendonitis, iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS), ligamentous and muscle tears, muscle sprains/strains, stress fractures, pes planus, plantar fasciitis, and shin splints.
The purpose of this study is to assess the correlation between acute and chronic pain, overuse injuries, and observational and palpatory findings upon evaluation. With an understanding of the common trends of somatic dysfunctions and etiology of the pain/injury, modified regimen/routine and improved treatment plans can be developed and recommended for runners to better rehabilitate, minimize relapse and reduce compensatory injuries. No medical or osteopathic treatment will be provided.
