Over the course of your physical therapy. care we will:

  • Take you through a series of physical performance tests to understand how you move and where your point of entry may be for rehab and/or training

  • Perform a 3-D gait analysis with the Runeasi technology. See more on the gait analysis here.

  • Educate you on what we believe to be going on

  • Advise on the best course of action for you to resume training

  • Many start running again as early as day 1 while others may take longer depending on the situation

  • Most physical therapy plans occur over the 3-6m time frame consisting of 3-6 follow up sessions after the initial evaluation.

  • You’ll receive a detailed email summary after each visit outlining the session and updates to your physical therapy plan

  • Between sessions you have full access to Adam or Chase depending on who you are working with via email, text, and call to discuss progress and setbacks as needed. No more waiting until your next session to figure out what to do.

With the help of RunMental, many runners are able to get back to running at some level on day 1, others take as much as 12 weeks depending on the situation. Regardless of your timeframe, you can be assured that everything will be done during your physical therapy care to get you back as quickly and safely as possible while providing you the tools to remain healthy long term.

Having extensive experience as a runnes and coaches along with taking continuing education on managing runners and reading hundreds of research articles related to running has positioned us well to help you as a runner. As one former patient described our practice once, "Not your average PT." captures exactly what we strive to be for everyone we work with.

Virtual physical therapy visits very closely mirror those that are in-person. You can expect the exact same high value care, walking away with an actionable plan, just as you would with an in-person session.

Virtual patients must have a treadmill accessible to obtain video for a 2-D, video gait analysis. We are unfortunately not able to offer the 3-D option with the Runeasi technology virtually.
