Get a FREE Pain Or Injury Screening

A free pain or injury screening gives you the opportunity to meet with one of our physical therapists at no charge. Learn more about your condition, get a fast assessment of the severity, and learn treatment options.

Running injuries occur for a variety of reasons and often take a while to improve. Our team at ActivePT will determine the cause of your pain and teach you how to help prevent future injuries. Our running injury treatment plan typically does not require you to stop running. We simply modify your current training program, shoes, and running form to get you back to your performance goals.

ActivePT has become known for our treatment of runners and running-related injuries. Some common injuries we see include:

  • Foot and ankle injuries (plantar fasciitis, heel pain, metatarsalgia, Achilles tendinitis, ankle sprains, and shin splints)
  • Knee injuries (runners knee, IT Band syndrome, patellofemoral syndrome)
  • Back, buttock and hip pain (lumbar, SI joint, piriformis syndrome, IT Band syndrome, hip bursitis, labral tears, and, hip impingement syndrome)
  • Rib pain (inhalation and exhalation rib dysfunctions)
  • Sprains, strains, and pain from degenerating joints and cartilage

Reduce the Risk of Future Running Injuries

Improper shoe choice can lead to pain or problems during your training runs. Correct shoe choice is key for runners. Your running shoes must be specific to your mileage, pace, strength, control, and most important, your anatomy. All running shoes are designed differently and it is hard to know which brand is right for your foot.

While many shoe examinations by non-medical personnel can show you whether you move correctly or not, they may not pinpoint WHY. Our physical therapists can assess your foot anatomy and running form to help determine the right type of shoe based for you. Our running specialists will consider your mileage, strength, flexibility, your hip, knee and foot structure when determining the best shoe for you. Our comprehensive shoe assessments are free and take only 15 minutes. We encourage all runners and active people to take advantage of this free service.
