Ready to start a running routine? 🏃‍♀️Dr. Paolo De Ciantis says getting assessed before you start is a game‑changer. He works with runners to build routines that actually last...checking running type, red flags (such as pain), and of course your personal running goals. A biomechanical assessment from a chiropractor can help your reach your goals while educating you on avoiding injuries, and move with care.
