“Insights that improved my running”

Came in to get my running gait assessed for my first half marathon. Awesome experience, and I got some really good insights and takeaways to help improve my running. Steve was great to work with — thank you.

Frequently asked questions

Everything runners ask before they get started.

Build my plan Or book a free discovery call
What actually happens in a running gait analysis?
We film you running in 2D and break your stride down joint by joint — cadence, ground-contact time, foot strike, overstride and left-right symmetry. Then we walk you through what the numbers mean and what to do about them. Most sessions run 45–60 minutes.
Do I need to be injured to book?
Not at all. Most runners come to run faster and more efficiently, or to stay ahead of injury before it happens. Pain isn’t a prerequisite — knowing your numbers is the point.
What do I walk away with?
A clear report of your stride, the specific things holding your running back, and a personalised plan to improve them — whether that’s gait retraining, strength work, further testing (VO₂ Max, lactate, force plate) or coaching.
Can it help if I just want to get faster?
Yes — that’s exactly what it’s for. Your analysis shows where you’re leaking speed and efficiency, and the plan can extend into strength, VO₂/lactate testing and run coaching.
I’ve had gait analysis before and it didn’t help.
Ours is objective and running-specific — validated against lab-grade motion capture, not a quick eyeball on a treadmill. You leave with real numbers and a clear plan, not opinions.
Do I need a referral, and is it claimable?
No referral needed — book directly online. The physiotherapy assessment is claimable on most private-health extras policies, with HICAPS on-site for on-the-spot rebates. We’re also NDIS, DVA, Medicare and WorkCover registered.
Where are your clinics?
Three Brisbane locations — West End, Newstead and Woolloongabba. Pick your preferred clinic when you book.
What if I want to talk it through first?
Book a free discovery call with Stephen, our Clinical Director. We’ll talk through your running, your goals and whether a gait analysis is the right starting point — no pressure.

Hey, I’m Stephen

Clinical Director & Founder, GymTherapy

I started GymTherapy because I kept seeing the same thing — runners guessing at what was holding their running back, because no one had taken a proper, objective look at how they actually move. Our approach is built around data, not protocol. Every runner deserves a real answer, not a one-size-fits-all plan.

  • Previous experience as a physiotherapist in the English Premier League, English Football League & with professional endurance athletes
  • Specialist in data-driven movement assessment & performance
  • Brings the technology used in professional sport to everyday runners
  • An endurance runner himself — marathons and ultramarathons
  • Qualified endurance running coach
Trusted from the touchline to the start line
