Running MOT

Move smarter. Run stronger. Stay injury-free.

Whether you're training for a marathon, just getting into running, or managing a recurring niggle — a running MOT can help you move more efficiently, reduce injury risk, and improve performance.

At Atherapy, our Running MOT is a comprehensive evaluation designed to assess your running mechanics from head to toe. Using treadmill video analysis and clinical expertise, we break down your running form, identify movement inefficiencies, and pinpoint underlying causes of pain or performance plateaus. From there, we tailor recommendations including targeted exercises, rehab strategies, and advice on footwear and training plans to help you run stronger, smoother, and safer.

We don’t just tell you how you run — we help you run better.

What’s included:

  • Treadmill Video Gait AnalysisHigh-speed video footage from multiple angles to assess joint loading, stride mechanics, cadence, and foot strike.
  • Biomechanical ScreeningStrength, mobility and control testing to identify key movement patterns that may be contributing to injury or inefficiency.
  • Footwear & Training ReviewReview of your current shoes, training history and future goals — helping you optimise your load management and recovery.
  • Actionable Feedback & PlanYou’ll leave with tailored recommendations, exercises, and cues to integrate immediately into your training.

Who it’s for:

  • Runners recovering from injury or surgery
  • Athletes looking to optimise form and efficiency
  • First-time or recreational runners wanting to prevent future issues
  • Anyone experiencing recurring pain or discomfort while running

Why it matters:

Running may be natural, but it isn’t always efficient — and small inefficiencies can lead to big problems over time. Our expert team bridges clinical insight with performance coaching to help you stay consistent, confident, and pain-free on every run.
