Running Injury and Performance Evaluation
By evaluating your gait, a physical therapist can identify abnormal movements, postures, and weaknesses that can contribute to overuse injuries, decrease running efficiency, and reduce overall performance. Even a “healthy” or uninjured runner can make small changes to their running form that can result in improved performance. With our physical therapist’s trained eye and the use of slow-motion video, massive positive changes are possible.
