Le Physio Clinic – Article on ITB Syndrome (lateral knee pain)

Article by Fah, Physioterapist at Le Physio Clinic. Full article here.

—

Are you tired of dealing with that nagging ITB pain? We get it – running with poor technique can really mess with your performance. But don’t worry, we’ve got your back!

Why Poor Running Technique Hurts:

  • Overstriding: Landing with your foot too far forward (often with a heel strike) ramps up braking forces and knee stress, straining the ITB.
  • Poor Posture: Slouching or leaning disrupts alignment, causing movements that stress the ITB.
  • Inappropriate Cadence: Running with a slow cadence (under 170 steps/min) increases ground contact time, stressing the ITB. Too many steps? That’s poor balance and weak hip abductors.
  • Weak Glutes: Weak glutes mean poor pelvic and leg stabilization, increasing ITB strain.

Our 4-Step Treatment Approach to Get You Back on Track – details inside the article:

Step 1: Identify the Pain

Step 2: Improve Mobility

Step 3: Physiotherapy Treatment

Step 4: Perfect Your Running Mechanics
