Who We Are

running

We are a group of clinicians that believe all athletes should be able to move in specific ways.  These patterns were achieved as we transitioned from babies to toddlers to young children to teens.  These patterns are often lost due to injury or lifestyle.  

We know you are here because you love running but Running* hates you.  Think of it like an evil entity in the world trying to prevent all people from enjoying it.  Since running is a repetitive sport, doing the same move, over thousands of repetitions imbalances and weaknesses will be found.  Compensations will be made.  New patterns of movement will be generated.  Then Running will win.  It will take advantage of these new patterns and create pain or an injury. Then Running wins.  

We will offer corrections to common problems that we have seen over a combined 100 years of direct service to runners at all levels.  Over this time we have seen common problems being common.  We have formally researched movement patterns and published about how poor movement leads to poor performance.  With some education you can take some of this knowledge and apply it to the way you feel and overcome Running and enjoy it.  Reduced risk of injury and improved performance may come as well, but your enjoyment of the sport is our focus.

Have a great run!

*Running with the capital R denotes the evil entity that is trying to steal your enjoyment.
