5-star gait analysis! I visited Up & Running Teddington for a gait analysis about a month ago and had a great experience. The staff were super friendly and Samuel took the time to hear about my history of injury and other lifestyle factors . He then watched me run on one of their treadmills before suggesting shoes with particular properties to help my running style. I then took time to test each shoe before selecting one. It's a great service that I would recommend and the shoes in store are all premium so worth checking out More...

I recently visited Up and Running in Teddington, and I have to say, it was an outstanding experience from start to finish. The store offers a fantastic selection of running shoes and sportswear, with something to suit every type of runner. What truly sets this place apart, however, is the staff. They are not only incredibly knowledgeable but also genuinely passionate about helping you find the perfect gear for your individual needs. More...

I went into up and running in Teddington yesterday as was after a new pair of running shoes and I can't recommend them highly enough. Sam was so helpful and friendly and really knew his stuff and sold me a brand I have never worn before. I want out for a run this morning and they felt amazing! More...

Great shop! I was a bit dubious as to whether it really made sense to go to a specialist running shop - I thought it was overkill and likely to be way more expensive than online. Wrong on both counts… They are very knowledgeable and professional and the customer service is excellent. They also have a wide range of shoes (plus accessories and clothes), with running machines to help with gait analysis etc so that you get the right shoes first time, although they allow a returns period if you don’t get on with your choice. The pricing is competitive compared to online, and because you start off with the right product, you can eliminate a lot of online returns and avoid having to make do with something that seemed like a good deal. Gold medal. More...

I came in here for advice and new running shoes a few weeks ago and I couldn't be happier. Mo gave excellent advice not only about shoes but also about running technique, so perfect for me that I used it straight away and in every run since. Thank you, Mo! When I came back to buy the shoes I was served by Tom and Matt who were also extremely knowledgeable and helpful. No hesitation in recommending Up and Running! :o) More...

Dry Needling
A treatment technique that involves inserting acupuncture needles into specific areas of tight muscles to stimulate trigger points and release muscle tension and or pain.
During this treatment you may feel the muscle twitch or contract. This in the long term can help reduce muscle tension, improve range and relieve pain. There are a wide range of conditions where dry needling may be beneficial alongside a physiotherapy rehab program.
These include but are not limited to:
- Muscle pain with the presence of trigger points
- Breaking down scar tissue following a muscle tear/strain
- Reducing muscle tightness post immobilisation e.g. surgery or fracture
- Reducing nerve pain which is the result of neural tension
- The treatment of conditions such as ITB syndrome and hip flexor pain
