Services
-
Every year, 8-32% of runners will give up running due to an injury. Runners deserve better from the healthcare system. Too often, runners are told to simply “stop running” instead of being offered a realistic, proactive plan to recover and return - it’s no surprise that many runners avoid seeking care altogether. Learn more.
-
Swimming is often viewed as a low-impact activity- but low impact doesn’t always mean injury free. Whether you're competing or swimming for fitness, repetitive strokes create significant load: elite swimmers can perform up to 30,000 arm rotations per week, and even recreational swimmers may hit 3,000+ rotations weekly during just a few pool sessions.
