PhysioLife Physiotherapist Andrea Chen Completes Course on Running Injuries

PhysioLife Physiotherapist Andrea Chen recently completed a course specifically dealing with the diagnosis and treatment of running injuries. Andrea has a keen interest in running injuries and has consequently developed a caseload that includes quite a few runners.

Besides dealing with running injuries, the course also focused on the role biomechanics (the runner’s form), and running shoes play in both the occurrence and prevention of injuries. The course was taught by renowned Blaise Dubois, a physiotherapist and consultant for the Canadian national track and field team.

If you’re a runner training for one of many events this spring or summer, and pain or injury is holding you back, or if you want to learn how to prevent injury, please call to book an appointment with Andrea.
