What We Treat

Built for Mumbai Runners — Beach, Marathon, Sea-Link

Mumbai's running community is huge — and the most common injuries we see at Juhu Physiotherapy Clinic are ITB band syndrome, runner's knee (patellofemoral pain), shin splints, plantar fasciitis and chronic calf or Achilles tendon issues.

Most of these aren't caused by running itself — they come from training errors (too much, too soon), weak hips and glutes, or biomechanical issues that haven't been addressed. We fix the cause, not just the symptom.

Whether you're training for the Tata Mumbai Marathon, the SCMM Half, or just chasing a faster Juhu Beach 5K — our running-specific rehab gets you back to mileage, not just rest.

Why Patients Choose Us

  • Running-specific assessment with video
  • Strength programmes built for runners
  • Coordination with your coach / training plan

  • Senior physios who run themselves

★★★★★
"As a marathon runner, I picked up a stubborn ITB problem 3 months before my race. The sports physio team had me back to full mileage in 6 weeks. Their knowledge of running biomechanics is outstanding."

Frequently Asked Questions

Common Questions Answered

Quick answers to questions our Juhu patients ask most often.

Can I keep running during treatment?
Often yes — we adjust mileage and intensity rather than stopping entirely. Total rest usually weakens runners further.
Do you do video gait analysis?
Yes — included in your first session for runners. We assess cadence, foot strike, hip drop and trunk lean.
How quickly can I get back to marathon training?
Most runners are back to easy runs within 2 weeks and full training within 6–8 weeks, depending on the injury.
Should I switch to barefoot or minimalist shoes?
Not necessarily. Footwear changes are individual — we'll advise based on your gait and history.
Are orthotics needed?
Sometimes — but most running issues resolve through strengthening, not orthotics.
Can I run a marathon with my current injury?
Often yes — with the right modifications. We help dozens of patients each year get to the start line healthy.
