Targeted rehabilitation for rotator cuff impingement, knee and hip pain, ankle sprains, and Achilles tendon complaints — 7 km (10 minutes via the N3) from Westville, Sherwood, and Reservoir Hills.
Running hills in Westville and Reservoir Hills, training at local gyms, or participating in school, university, and club sports places substantial eccentric and impact load across the ankles, knees, hips, and shoulders. When a joint loses normal arthrokinematic glide or surrounding muscles develop tight trigger points, compensations quickly spread up or down the kinetic chain.
