Running Assessment in New York

A precise look at your running mechanics to improve performance and reduce injury risk.

Running rewards precise mechanics, and punishes flawed ones.

Are you a runner seeking to enhance your performance, avoid injuries, and master a more efficient technique? Running demands a precise synergy of muscle strength, joint mobility, and posture, and even small inefficiencies compound over hundreds of thousands of foot strikes.

Our Running Assessment scrutinizes every aspect of your running mechanics to identify the abnormalities or inefficiencies that could lead to reduced performance or injury, whether you're marathon training or running for general fitness.

Every aspect of your running mechanics, examined.

Each of these is scrutinized before we build your personalized training plan.

Gait and Stride Inefficiencies

Video gait analysis captured from multiple angles uncovers insights into your stride, posture, and overall technique.

Strength and Flexibility Imbalances

A comprehensive evaluation of muscle strength and joint flexibility identifies any imbalances or deficits.

Improper Footwear

A footwear assessment confirms whether your current shoes provide the support your mechanics require.

Elevated Injury Risk Patterns

We identify the specific abnormalities or inefficiencies in your mechanics that could lead to injury.

Reduced Performance Efficiency

The same inefficiencies that raise injury risk are often the ones quietly limiting your speed and endurance.

Movement Pattern Limitations

Strength and flexibility testing surfaces the physical limitations that could be impacting your running form.

Consultation, analysis, and a plan built to progress.

Your assessment begins with a one-on-one consultation about your running history, previous injuries, and goals, followed by video gait analysis captured from multiple angles to uncover insights into your stride, posture, and overall technique.

Strength and flexibility testing identifies any imbalances affecting your form, and a footwear assessment confirms whether your current shoes are providing the support your mechanics require. From there, we build a personalized exercise and training plan with follow-up sessions to keep you progressing.

No referral needed. Most insurances accepted. In most cases, you can be seen within the same week.
