MTS4RUN

MTS4RUN for runners

MTS4RUN is a project that has been created for people who want to start running and would like to avoid the frustration of experiencing pain while pursuing their running adventure. It is a project that is also dedicated to people who have been running for many years and have a great deal of knowledge about their bodies, but still struggle with chronic pain in their knees, Achilles tendon, spine or shin splints.MTS4RUN is a group of specialists that works according to many years of working with runners of different ages and running experience - from dynamic sprint distances to multi-hour mountain ultra runs. Our strongest point is the diagnosis of the patient, which shows us the weakest links in the runner's body, followed by therapy based on the latest technologies that accelerate and intensify the therapeutic effects.The MTS 4 Run programme is a comprehensive package of visits dedicated to patients requiring a professional and comprehensive approach to their body on many levels. Among other things, the programme addresses issues such as the body's physical capacity, biochemical parameters and the efficiency of the cardiovascular and endocrine systems. The programme provides a rational and safe, and importantly, a patient-led approach to exercise.

At the appointment, the patient receives a comprehensive diagnosis, which includes the following tests:

  • postural examination, i.e. a computer diagnosis of the correct function of the foot, performed on a specialised postural-bar mat. The purpose of such an examination is to verify the exact body loads on the feet and whether they are correct. This gives us the opportunity to determine the correct functioning of the whole body and the impact on potentially occurring dysfunctions.
  • cardiovascular examination using a state-of-the-art Holter. The innovative approach makes it possible, after the patient has been instructed on how to connect the Holter, to analyse the cardiovascular performance during the exercise itself. Thus, the device scans the cardiac parameters in real time during exercise and sends them to the cardiologist in real time. The information thus obtained makes it possible to directly relate the effects of exercise on the cardiovascular system, providing information not only on its safety for the patient's body, but also on the performance and condition of the heart.
  • a basic set of blood tests, i.e. a full blood count, lipid profile, liver enzymes and hormone levels.
  • Basic supplementation recommended by a doctor - creatine, omega3 acid, coenzyme Q10, magnesium + vit. B6 + D3K2

And, of course, the full attention and involvement of our physiotherapist, combined with initial manual therapy 🙂

The therapy consists of a number of methods, such as manual therapy, trigger point therapy and MedKey, Indiba radio wave and injury prevention along with runner's education and inspiration.
The treatments aim to:

  • pain relief
  • restoration of normal joint mobility
  • muscle relaxation
  • increase joint stability
  • accelerating the absorption of haematomas and post-traumatic oedema

If you are a runner and the above description is a reflection of your health condition or stage of your running adventure - sign up for your first consultation today - feel more flexibility in your body, let the pain disappear once and for all and make running your activity for years to come. With our therapy, you will recover faster after every competition and training session. Increased joint mobility will lengthen your running stride and relaxed and strengthened muscles will increase your endurance on runs, uphill, longer and shorter distances. With our state-of-the-art technology, we will help you to minimise muscle soreness during competition, as well as post-competition time.

FAQ

What are the most common injuries or ailments that runners visit the physiotherapist's office with?

Typical complaints of runners are runner's knee, Achilles tendonitis, plantar fasciitis, Shin Splints, lumbar spine pain.

What are the common symptoms that runners often ignore that may indicate the need for physiotherapy intervention?

These include joint stiffness in the morning, pain that appears after training but disappears during activity, tissue palpation tenderness (e.g. during rolling) and restrictions in joint mobility.

How is biomechanics assessed during a physiotherapy visit and what might be the consequences of incorrect biomechanics?

During the visit, the therapist recommends several functional tests and then manually assesses the ranges of movement in the joints and the tensions in the individual soft tissues. Abnormal biomechanics can lead to muscular imbalances, which can lead to painful symptoms, for example, during regular training.

What is the main idea behind the physiotherapy project for runners and how is it intended to support their health and sporting performance?

The aim of the project is to restore fuller joint mobility, loosen tight tissues, reduce pain symptoms and educate the runner in pre- and post-training recovery and self-therapy.

What modern diagnostic and therapeutic methods will the project use for optimal care of runners?

In addition to physiotherapeutic diagnosis, an ultrasound examination is available. In order to accelerate and increase therapeutic effects, we use Indiba Activ technology, shock wave, TC CRYO, MEDKEY.

How will the physiotherapy project for runners be accessible and adapted to different age groups?

Each runner will receive an individualised diagnostic and therapeutic process. There is a standardisation of treatment in the project, but each person will have a personalised treatment.

Does the project plan a close collaboration between the physiotherapist and the running coach to optimise the care of the runner?

In the project, in addition to specialists such as a physiotherapist, orthopaedist and psychodietician, the runner will also have the care of a running coach.

What are the expected benefits for runners participating in the physiotherapy project, both short and long term?

Every runner will be able to count on a quick visit right after a fresh injury, and preventive visits will keep their fitness at a very high level for a long training period.

Does the project involve educating runners about self-care to enable them to manage their physical health effectively?

Definitely yes. The project also aims to educate and inspire the runner to do the right thing both before and after training.

Do the physiotherapists plan to collaborate with other professionals, such as a nutritionist or psychologist, to provide comprehensive care to runners?

The MTS 4 RUN project brings together not only many specialists from many medical fields, but also coaches as well as research strictly for running.
