Are you a runner struggling with pain or injury that’s getting in the way of doing what you love? I’m glad you’re here. Injuries are incredibly frustrating and often affect more than just your training. I am here to help you on your journey back to being the best version of yourself. I want you to leave my care running confidently and without fear of re-injury.

What to expect during your first day

Detailed injury and training history: Your situation is unique. I will take time to listen to you to understand what’s going on, hear your thoughts and concerns, and gather information about your unique ecosystem. This will help me better understand your specific injury context and goals. We will also explore your training regimen and racing schedule to determine your needs.

Functional movement exam: The beauty of running is its predictable performance demands. Ensuring you can directly load through key regions and tissues is essential to help you reclaim your lease on running. The tests I will take you through may include but are not limited to the following: single leg balance, various squatting assessments, and calf raises

Orthopedic exam: Assessing specific tissues to examine your strength, flexibility, and joint mobility to understand where there may be any areas that move too much or too little and how this compares to your uninvolved side

Running gait analysis (if appropriate): I will perform a slow-motion analysis of your running pattern and examine your movement for unwanted deviations and inefficiencies that may be contributing to your injury.

Review of findings: I will help you understand where your pain is coming from, the underlying causes of this area's pain, and why it isn't getting better.

Tailored Plan: You will get a follow-up email recapping the session while outlining a plan to follow over the next few weeks with pictures and/or video hyperlinks and links to any necessary equipment. We will also discuss any appropriate training and technique modifications. You can also email between the initial consultation and follow-up session.

After your initial evaluation, your return visit is crucial for tracking progress and refining your treatment plan. We'll review your advancements, assess your running/training regimen, and determine if adjustments are needed.

During your one-on-one session, we'll focus on advancing toward your goals. Sessions may include mobility work, strength training, neuromuscular control exercises, and hands-on treatments, tailored to your needs. You'll receive personalized supervision and targeted cues to ensure the optimal form and effectiveness of each intervention. Let's continue working together to get you back to peak performance and running confidently.
