Kinesiotherapy for runners in Timișoara — recovery and prevention

12/05/2026

## Why runners need kinesiotherapy? Running is one of the most popular sports in Timișoara. But repetitive effort puts pressure on joints, tendons, and muscles. ## Most common runner injuries - **IT band syndrome** — lateral knee pain - **Plantar fasciitis** — heel pain, especially in the morning - **Achilles tendinopathy** — pain at the Achilles tendon - **Patellofemoral pain syndrome** — "runner's knee" - **Shin splints** — tibial pain during effort ## What kinesiotherapy can do for you Through a complete functional assessment, I identify muscle imbalances and movement deficiencies causing these problems. My program includes: 1. Running biomechanics correction exercises 2. Targeted strength training (hip, glutes, stabilizers) 3. Mobility and flexibility work 4. Progressive return to training ## Prevention — for healthy runners You don't need an injury to benefit. A preventive assessment identifies risks **before** they become problems. Ideal before a race season or marathon. **Book a runner assessment →**
