In terms of running, there is evidence that links mechanics with injury. This evidence provides the justification for altering these mechanics. Increased hip adduction and vertical impact loading have been most commonly associated with injury. More work is needed in order to understand the optimal way to retrain gait patterns in runners. The human body has a considerable ability to adapt. To pr...

Applying this same rationale to running, an activity in which up to 80% of participants are injured...
متن کاملGait Retraining in Parkinson’s Disease: A Cognitive Cueing Approach
Parkinson's disease (PD) is characterized by resting tremor, bradykinesia, rigidity, and postural instability. These cardinal symptoms commonly affect gait performance and therefore researchers have been investigating techniques to manage and treat gait impairment in individuals with PD. This thesis explores a progressive approach to gait rehabilitation using a novel intervention that combines ...
