With just four days to go until the London Marathon, we thought we’d take this opportunity to share two great articles and three research summaries previously published in International Therapist that cover how therapies can support runners and those experiencing aches, pains and injuries related to running:
Article: Dawn Morse provides an introduction to runner’s knee
Article: Sarah Catlow and Lance Doggart discuss running injuries and prevention strategies
Research: Pressure massage may help Achilles tendinopathy
Research: Sports massage and cold water immersion could be more effective than rest after a marathon
Research: Wearing running shoes without cushioning may reduce injury risk
We would like to wish any of our members taking part in the marathon the very best of luck! If you are supporting any runners with post-event treatments, please get in touch and tell us more. You can contact us at marketing@fht.org.uk
Did you enjoy these articles and research summaries?
All of the above were published in FHT’s membership magazine, International Therapist. To find out more about the many benefits of being an FHT member, visit fht.org.uk/join-us
