⚖️ Instability + alignment: Imbalances that may lead to injury or inefficiency
🔁 Asymmetries: Side-to-side differences that affect performance
📊 Running Health Score: A simple, trackable metric that reflects movement quality and progress
🎯 Real-time biofeedback: Instantly shows if your gait retraining is working — no guesswork
🏃♂️ Jumping + athletic capacity: Evaluate explosive control and dynamic strength beyond running
OUTCOMES
“For the past 2 years I have seen my running ability regressing to the point that I decided to consult with The Run Rx and sign up for gait analysis and training sessions. I’ve since seen improvements in my form with the adjustments recommended”
Tangible results after seeing them:
running sub-2 half marathons again (haven't for 3 years)
PR in the last marathon I ran
I can’t say enough good things about The RunRX. Every time I leave the practice I feel like a million bucks. If I could give more stars I would.
I had sought out professional advice in the past from running experts, chiropractors and other active recovery resources but no one had the solution for me. It had gotten to a point where I couldn’t even run.
It’s been about 8 weeks of healing at this point and I can see the light at the end of the tunnel. A feeling I haven’t had for years.
