How can Mobilized Physical Therapy Help?
Our comprehensive rehabilitation program consist of the following components: Restore, Rebuild, Re-Educate. We use this to help individuals return back to running to their full potential.
Restore
Restoring normal joint mobility and muscle flexibility is crucial for ensuring you can run with full range of motion. Tightness in the joints and muscles can lead to repetitive tension, friction, and altered running mechanics, often resulting in pain. For instance, tight hip flexors can shorten your stride, arch your lower back, and contribute to pain in either of these areas.
Rebuild
Rebuilding muscles to the necessary strength and endurance levels is essential for enabling your body to withstand the demands of running, including distance, time, terrain, elevation changes, and repetitive ground reaction forces. Through our Run Analysis and physical examination, we can identify any deficits and tailor our approach to address them effectively, helping you achieve your running goals.
Re-Educate
Good mobility, flexibility, and strength are crucial components, but they're not sufficient without finely tuned neuromuscular system—the connection between mind, body, and muscles. In essence, it's about how effectively your entire body responds to the ground forces, uneven terrain, and elevation the moment your foot makes contact. This training approach encompasses every aspect from head to toe, ensuring optimal performance and injury prevention.
