Physical Therapy

Our one-hour physical therapy sessions provide individualized treatment by licensed therapists who address both symptoms and root causes of pain. We use comprehensive biomechanical evaluations to identify dysfunctional movement patterns and develop customized programs that include corrective exercises, manual therapy, and video gait analysis. Our approach combines 2D/3D motion capture technology with hands-on treatment to optimize recovery and prevent future injuries for runners and athletes of all levels.

Dry Needling

Functional Dry Needling targets myofascial trigger points to relieve chronic pain and muscle tension by releasing shortened muscle bands. Our certified therapists use sterile monofilament needles to restore normal muscle length, improve circulation, and reduce inflammation. This evidence-based technique effectively treats acute/chronic pain conditions, enhances recovery from injuries, and serves as preventive care for athletes by addressing muscular imbalances before they lead to performance issues or injuries.

3D Gait Analysis

Our advanced 3D gait analysis uses eight motion capture cameras recording at 400 frames per second to assess running biomechanics comprehensively. The system compares results to a database of elite runners, identifying subtle inefficiencies undetectable through traditional video analysis. This technology enables precise diagnosis of movement pattern issues, creation of individualized training programs, and generation of detailed reports that track progress over time while reducing injury risk through form optimization.

Women's Health

Our specialized women's health program addresses pelvic floor dysfunction through a holistic approach that examines the entire body's movement patterns. Certified therapists treat conditions like urinary incontinence, diastasis recti, and postpartum recovery using both internal and external assessments combined with core stabilization training. The comprehensive care includes education on proper activation of the core system, personalized exercise programs, and treatment of related musculoskeletal issues affecting the back, hips, and pelvis.

VO2 Max Testing

VO2 Max testing measures your body's maximum oxygen utilization capacity during exercise, providing critical insights into cardiovascular fitness and endurance potential. Our assessment combines pulmonary function measurements with metabolic rate analysis to create personalized training plans that optimize performance. The data helps establish baseline fitness levels, track improvements over time, and develop targeted exercise programs that enhance athletic performance while reducing injury risk through scientifically-informed training intensity adjustments.
