At human repair shop we understand that running for most of us is our happy place.
And rightfully so, it releases endorphins , clears the mind and keeps us fit and healthy .
At human repair shop, we know that for many, running is more than just exercise—it’s a way to clear the mind, boost endorphins, and stay fit. However, running efficiently and without injury requires proper technique. That’s where our Physiotherapy Treadmill Gait Analysis comes in.
How It Works
Our Physiotherapy Treadmill Gait Analysis is a specialised assessment tool used to evaluate your walking or running patterns on a treadmill. This technique helps our experienced physiotherapists diagnose and treat musculoskeletal, neurological, and biomechanical issues affecting your running gait.
Benefits of Running Gait Analysis
- Reduce the Risk of Injury: Identifying and correcting poor form reduces strain on muscles and joints.
- Run More Efficiently: Improve running economy and efficiency, helping you run longer and faster.
- Enhance Performance: Correct poor habits that may be slowing you down.
- Prevent Injury Recurrence: By addressing the root causes of injuries, we can help prevent them from coming back.
How We Do It
1. We Listen to Your Goals
At human repair shop, we take the time to understand your specific running goals. Whether you’re returning to running after a break, recovering from surgery, training for a fun run, or aiming to improve your performance, we provide personalised guidance to achieve your objectives.
2. Physiotherapy Assessment
Your physiotherapist will assess your medical history, including any past injuries or surgeries that might affect your gait. This comprehensive review ensures we understand your needs fully.
3. Treadmill Running Gait Analysis
Using advanced video gait technology and biomechanical assessments, we analyse key parameters like step length, stride length, cadence, and stance/swing phases. This helps us identify muscle weaknesses, restrictions, or imbalances that could be holding you back or causing injury.
4. Customised Plan for Success
Once the assessment is complete, our physiotherapists will design a tailored treatment plan to address any issues, which may include:
- Physiotherapy treatment to address muscular or joint problems
- Physio-led Pilates for core strengthening and muscle balance correction
We also make it easy—there’s no need to bring in X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs. With your permission, we can access them electronically.
We accept all major health funds, making your visit stress-free and affordable.

louise Austin26 November 2024Treatment at The Human Repair Shop is commendable. Tony, Orla and Maz always have a wide smile to greet their patients, creating a welcoming and friendly atmosphere. After detailed & appropriate questioning, physio Orla Cunningham targets each problem with obvious professionalism. Her techniques surely improve the patient's blood circulation which in turn reduce muscle tension and general fatigue. Suggested exercises are an integral part of her approach. You invariably leave the Human Repair Shop feeling refreshed and rejuvenated ... and receive a warm "Goodbye".Catherine Weir25 November 2024Excellent physiotherapy service. Lovely staff and a very good outcome resulting from treatment.Tyler Halvarson24 November 2024I came in not being able to walk and orla and her team completely fixed meKaren Gregory30 October 2024Paula is an amazing physio. I have seen her for a few different things over the years, she is always quick to identify the issue and work to rectify things ASAP. She'll schedule one or two follow ups, if required, but her main is to get you pain free and moving effectively as quickly as possible.Marcelle Grolman29 October 2024I started off at Human Repair Shop for physiotherapy for a minor neck issue. Excellent physio and only three sessions required. After that I tried out Pilates and absolutely love it. Orla supervises personally and ensures the right level for me. I am 87 and very fit after a lifetime of exercise but my need now is maintenance for the ageing body. While Orla gives me exactly that, it is tailored to work for all ages. Super professional, kind and caring. The environment is perfect. Great workout and good vibes. Highly recommended.Mohammad Al-shinnag9 October 2024A great place and an amazing team.
