Gait retraining is a movement specific intervention that aims to facilitate a new learning technique used to abnormal running mechanics that are contributing to an injury.

Strength training was found to be effective in improving muscle strength but not sufficient to improve running mechanics[1]. The use of gait retraining rose from the need for a specific approach to the motor pattern that is likely contributing to the occurance and perisstance of symptpms.

It aims to reduce the tisue stress by either correcting the movement pattern thatt is causing the stress or changing the distribution of the stress from one joint to another[1].
