For Physicians
 Testimonials from clinicians whom we have worked with during the past year echo our belief that the root of healing musculoskeletal injury is a clear understanding of mechanical factors that promote connective tissue dysfunction and skeletal incongruity. Detailed and cutting-edge motion analysis is therefore pivotal for an informed diagnostic approach, therapeutic interventions including rehabilitation, outlining guidelines for safe return to participation, and most importantly, preventing recurrent injury.

Testimonials

Look forward to improvements to come...even at age 42.

Principles of Injury Rehabilitation
The majority of running injuries are related to overuse. We do too much, too fast, too soon. Most injuries occur during a transition period-a period where our training is undergoing some type of change. Common examples include increasing mileage too quickly, changing intensity of training, such as moving from a base/distance phase to a strength or speed phase, changing the surface one trains on, or even changing the type of running shoes.
