Physio Running Assessment
Aevum Physiotherapy is a specialist running Physio clinic in the Sutherland Shire. As such, we have an excellent understanding of the biomechanics of running. The advanced technology and equipment in clinic allow us to generate a 3D model we can analyse in real-time. This is done thanks to the 8 ceiling-mounted infrared capture cameras that capture every bit of movement down to the millimetre.
That further allows us to analyse specific aspects of your running that are unable to be picked up with the naked eye. Our system provides millimetric precision. What that means for the patient is that we’re better able to identify the causes of running-related injuries, as often the cause of an issue comes down to small movement repeated over and over during a run. As well as that, we’ll be able to identify the areas of predisposition to injury along with the area where running performance and efficiency can be improved.
During your running analysis, the Physiotherapist will discuss relevant findings, provide a comprehensive report and suggest a strengthening program where required to help prevent injury and improve your running performance.

Anti-gravity Treadmill
As one of the best running assessment providers, we’re proud to say we invest in our equipment and facility. From all of the pieces of equipment in our facility, we’re most proud of the anti-gravity treadmill. It’s a great addition to the space and we’re aware that not all running assessment providers can work with one. That’s why we consider ourselves fortunate. As well as that, the anti-gravity treadmill is very useful for quality running assessment. We can easily help you get on your feet again and improve your technique.
The AlterG Anti-Gravity treadmill allows patients to walk or run earlier during their recovery. The patient is completely stable and supported by the treadmill. This revolutionises patient care and gives people the ability to return to walking and running sooner after injury.
There’s hope for all of our patients, regardless how light or heavy you might be. The anti-gravity treadmill allows us to reduce your body weight to whatever we need to. This way, you’re able to walk or run again without any obstacles in the way, and without your body type and weight being any sort of issue. This is extremely useful for correcting gait patterns and strengthening your legs.
The anti-gravity treadmill has proven to be excellent for post stroke rehabilitation, Multiple sclerosis, Cerebral palsy, Spina bifida, Spinal chord injury, acquired brain injury and any number of other suitable conditions.
