The Running Repairs Online course with Tom Goom - teaching Physiotherapists, Physical therapists and trained health professionals how to successfully treat running injuries

Are you a Physiotherapist, Physical Therapist or healthcare professional who feels overwhelmed when treating running injuries? Do you need more certainty about running assessments, which tests to use, and how to accurately diagnose your patient's injury?

Breathe new life into your running injury treatment results!

The Running Repairs Online Course with Tom Goom is specially designed for professionals like you who want to master the treatment of running injuries.

This comprehensive, evidence-based course equips you with the knowledge and tools to effectively diagnose, treat, and prevent running injuries.

Running injury treatment can be challenging

You may be unsure how much running your patients should do while recovering or how to convince them to reduce their running.

If your treatment strategies aren't yielding results that excite you and your patients, and you'd like more confidence, better diagnostic skills, and a more practical approach to treating running injuries, then you're not alone.

You want patients to be able to run without pain

Imagine what it would be like if your running patients recovered faster and could return to running or sport without fear of re-injury. Imagine their joy and the relief on their faces when they can finally run without pain. Picture your satisfaction and increased confidence when you know exactly what to do and how to help them.

But instead, you're caught in a cycle of uncertainty and frustration. Your patients keep returning with limited improvement in their pain and ability to run, and their recovery process is slow.

The joy of treating active patients becomes overshadowed by the disappointment of seeing your patients in pain and being unable to help them as much as you'd like.

Here's what you'll gain from the course:

  • The ability to accurately diagnose running injuries by understanding what questions to ask and what tests to perform.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of the underlying causes of common running injuries.
  • Skills to differentiate various conditions and ensure no serious pathologies are overlooked.
  • A library of effective exercises and progressions that you can quickly choose from to help patients recover.
  • Expertise in running gait analysis and using simple cues to aid recovery.
  • A clear roadmap to guide your patients from injury to complete recovery.

Transform your running injury treatment

The course features eighteen comprehensive modules that will guide you from your current level of knowledge, whether you're new to running injury treatment or an experienced clinician, to the successful treatment of running injuries.

Begin your journey towards becoming a running injury expert, and experience the joy of seeing your patients conquer their running injuries and meet their goals. Are you ready for the transformation?

Here's what you'll get immediate access to as soon as you register

The Running Repairs Online course is your step by step guide to progress recreational and elite runners from injury to full recovery, with immediate access to:

  • Assessment and treatment video demonstrations. Improve your practical skills and treatment results immediately with demonstrations of assessment tests, treatment techniques, gait retraining and rehab exercises.

Tom Goom Chartered Physiotherapist Brighton UK

How did Tom Goom develop his knowledge, skills and passion for running injuries? Here’s Tom’s story.

“Running Repairs started at the finish. To be precise, at the finish of the Brighton marathon around a decade ago. I was watching in the Spring sunshine unaware that this was the beginning of my work and my life changing forever...

... As I watched the runners battle through that finishing stretch I was in awe. I cheered so much I was hoarse for days! I’ve always been a runner and have competed since primary school cross-country but I’d never tackled the ‘big one’. That was about to change. Within 24 hours I’d signed up for my first marathon, a race that ignited my passion for running rehab.

That started a journey of running and a journey of learning for me.

As I began training for my marathon, I pushed myself and was constantly keeping niggles at bay. I went on a runner’s forum to see how others were getting on and what I found shocked me.

There were so many runners managing injuries and all were struggling to find quality treatment. I searched online and everywhere I looked it was the same - poor advice, “must-do” stretches and foam rolling, multiple different opinions without any evidence behind them.

I wanted to help all these runners, and I became a man on a mission! I spent hours answering question after question on running forums but with more questions coming up than I could answer I soon realised I needed to create a home for quality, evidence-based advice on running injuries - running-physio.com

I started writing articles on ITB syndrome and all the common injuries I saw clinically - reviewing the evidence, using it with my running injury patients, and synthesising the research and practical application into a blogpost with advice on treatment and injury prevention.

There were injuries, complex problems and jargon that I was unfamiliar with, and I felt daunted by how much I needed to know. At the same time, I became determined to research all of these areas, use the research and my new knowledge with my patients, and share my knowledge with as many runners as possible.

I explored strength and conditioning, load management, training optimisation and psychosocial factors in injury, gaining knowledge and experience all the time.

The more my knowledge and skills developed around the latest research, the more I was able to help runners. Having solutions for runners and consistently finding ways to get them back on track (literally and figuratively) is a great feeling.

My treatment results with injured athletes started to get noticed and I became the ‘go to guy’ for running injuries, seeing everyone from weekend warriors to international athletes.

My passion for treating running injuries grew and grew, fuelled by the clinical success extra knowledge was bringing.

Sharing knowledge, research and clinical experience with the Running Repairs Online course.

As my knowledge and passion grew I wanted to help fellow therapists get great results with athletes. I took what I learned and carefully shaped it into the first Running Repairs course which I presented in July 2014, covering all the key principles in managing running injury as well as how to treat all common pathologies we see in runners. With gait analysis, strength and conditioning and training load management to fit in too it was a full weekend but I loved every minute of it!

I’ve been very fortunate since then to present the course all over the world and meet some incredible therapists. Their feedback has taken Running Repairs to a new level. Every course I listened carefully to people and used it to adapt and expand the course and the response has been excellent - the average score the course is given by participants is 9.5/10!

The problem I encountered with face to face courses was time. I wanted to share more on shoe selection, strength and conditioning, power development and complex cases, but couldn’t fit any more into a weekend course. I had more exercises to share, more ideas and more solutions to offer therapists.

Therapists from around the world wanted to attend the course, but didn’t have a way to get to the course in the UK. Demand for the Running Repairs course was going through the roof, but I couldn’t physically run any more face to face courses or fit the number of therapists wanting to attend into a room.

In stepped Clinical Edge legend and good friend of mine, David Pope with the answer!.. David suggested we develop an online course where we could include ALL the aspects I wanted to cover, and therapists all over the world could enjoy it at their leisure. We combined my content with his extensive experience in online learning and passion for sharing knowledge, and Running Repairs Online was born.

Since opening the Running Repairs Online course for enrolment in July 2017 we’ve been blown away by how popular it is and delighted with the feedback from participants. It’s been amazing to see a community of thousands of Running Repairs Online course graduates grow around the world. I love hearing the success every online course attendee has with running injuries in their clinical practice.

Sharing my knowledge and skills with you in the Running Repairs Online course will build your confidence in treating runners, and avoid the frustrations of not having a clear pathway to recovery for your running injury patients.

What do course attendees have to say about the Running Repairs Online course?

JAMES ARMSTRONG (Physiotherapist, UK).

"As a physio and an ultrarunner, I highly recommend this course as a very complete overview of treating not only runners and walkers but also anyone with a lower limb injury, as the principles apply to everyone.

I loved how many practical tips I learned with regards to gait analysis; progressive, graded loading and exercise; education (it works well with what I have previously learned in pain neuroscience courses); and the latest science (or lack thereof, in which case helpful suggestions were still made).

There was so much useful content and my personal notes of important points totaled almost 30 pages!"

SANDRA HARDY (Physiotherapist, Canada)

"I love the depth of content and the way it flows. The course has improved my knowledge of lower extremity injuries that I can incorporate not only in runners, but all patients!

Tom has an incredible ability to articulate his points, and simplify concepts and ideas so they are easy to understand.

Additionally, the pace of the course was perfect, as I never felt rushed when jotting down notes, as has been the case in other courses. This really allows you to absorb the information Tom is giving you.

For me, this course is a "must" for anyone working in orthopaedics.

It was a fantastic course that I'd recommend to anyone!”
