We help you optimize your movement so you can improve your running and hit PRs during your next race

Does this sound like your recent physical therapy experience?

They tell you that running is too much on your body.

Maybe you should try a lower impact form of training.

They think your race goals are ridiculous because who needs to run that long and run that quickly?

If they don’t respect your goals then they don’t have a solution.

We have helped multiple athletes compete in ultra endurance events, marathons, and triathlons!

How we help you get back to doing what you love

  • Address The Root Causes Of Your Pain

    Your whole body is working together when you’re running which is why we don’t treat a knee pain like a knee issue. If we focus on the site of symptoms then we might get lost.

    Whether it’s a foot issue, a hip issue, or a back issue. We scan the whole body to make sure that you’re not missing a quality that predisposes you to suboptimal mechanics.

  • Optimize Mobility And Stability

    Runners come from all different types of backgrounds, have different body types, and have different tendencies. That means you need very specific things to YOU.

    We optimize your warm-up and training program to address mobility deficits, areas of weakness, and help you feel the strongest that you’ve ever felt in your body.

 FAQs

  • Most clinics have you do the same handful of exercises that came out of the copy machine, a few stretches with a green band, you get hooked up to electric stimulation, and then some heat or ice. Unfortunately, that’s what most people think physical therapy is.

    We take a comprehensive approach to helping people move their best. This means look at mobility, stability, strength, power, coordination, and more. Our physical therapy clinic is equipped with state-of-the-art sports medicine technology(see here) that gives us amazing data about the way you move, the asymmetries, and more!

    You will get continuously updated programs, insight on your training, expert opinions on footwear, and everything under the sun to make sure that you’re checking off every single box possible to perform at your best.

  • We do running assessments in conjunction with our own movement assessments. The more data that we collect and parallels that we can find then the more comfortable we are with moving forward with addressing the true root causes.

    The human body is very consistent and the same mechanics will show up in running as they do in other movement screens. The key is figuring out what that compensation is, whether it’s relevant to your symptoms, and how to address them.

  • The truth is that people run to get into shape instead of getting into shape to run. Running can place 5-8x your bodyweight on one leg which means you need to be able to tolerate that through your muscles, tendons, and joints.

    The other side of that coin is that we find a lot of runners have previous injuries that were never rehabbed properly that create a lot of problems. It is not uncommon for us to find runners with knee and hip issues that have a history of chronic ankle issues.

    We often also find a lot of runners that are experiencing knee pain on one leg because they injured their other knee but it never rehabbed well so they overload the currently symptomatic knee.

    Running can be enough if you’ve got a good baseline but most people are missing key performance markers to help them stay healthy while they ramp up their running.

  • There are times where you have to take off running depending on the injury, and there are times that you can still maintain some mileage.

    This is a question that will be different for everyone. We typically try to keep people at the mileage that they can do without a reproduction or increase in symptoms while addressing the root causes with their rehab and training.

    The goal should never be to FULLY rest from running AND rehab/performance training. There is always something you are capable of doing that can get you back to your goals. If you stop doing whatever that is then that is the first step to starting to lose function.
