Running Analysis

Slow Motion Video Running Analysis

Runner’s run…

 

Here at Peak we believe in comprehensive care. That is why we provide a package for 2 sessions, one-on-one with a physical therapist as part of our running analysis program. 

 

As runners ourselves, we understand the frustration that comes from injuries preventing you from your sport or a plateau limiting your continued improvement. We want to help you break these barriers and achieve your running goals by offering a scientific breakdown of your running in order to optimize your sport and reduce the risk of injury.

 

This is an additional service to our normal physical therapy services. It requires no doctor referral or insurance so call us for pricing and to schedule today!

“Garrett is the Man.

He troubleshooted my Achilles issue last fall and got me on a routine that helped heal the lower legs and got me back on the running wagon.

I’ve even signed up for another 50 mile run thanks to Peak. Woohoo!”

“After running my first marathon, I developed pain in both knees and couldn’t run at all. Garrett came highly recommended from a triathlete friend. I had visited both a sports Dr and massage therapist, but it wasn’t until my visit with Garrett that he correctly identified the cause and put me on a program to strengthen my glutes to better support my knees. I am now back up and running, training for marathon #2, which wouldn’t have been possible without Garrett’s help. The whole facility is nice, clean, and spacious, and the staff and PTs are all very friendly and helpful. I looked forward to my visits as i was seeing improvement in my strength with each visit. I highly recommend you visit Peak PT for any of your PT needs.”

“After more than 10 years of dealing with a major pain in the butt (literally) I arrived at the office of Peak Physical Therapy. I had managed the condition through various modalities of cortisone shots, chiro care, massage, ice, drugs etc, but by the time I arrived at Peak Physical Therapy I was having pain just walking. The very first thing that my therapist went through was to re-look at the condition, where all other professionals had treated the butt itself, my PT looked at the cause and discovered that the problem was a combination of weak abs, tight back and tight hamstrings was causing the pelvis to tilt over and thus cause the pain in the butt. WOW! What a difference. Even though I’m fast approaching my fifties, my running times have gone back to those of my thirties through a combination of no pain and longer strides due to increased flexibility.”

“Peak Physical Therapy is AMAZING! I have been going off and on for a few years for various injuries. I have seen Garret all of the times. And all of the times each injury has improved. The most significant recovery has been recently. I started seeing him back in March due to knee pain. I was training for an Ironman triathlon and could barely run 15 minutes without my knee throbbing. He gave me strengthening massages and would do deep pressure massage every appointment. With the combination of appointments and me doing the exercises I was slowly able to work up to running again! I was STOKED! I could finally do a 17 mile run with ZERO knee pain all due to Garret and his expertise! I would go back in a heartbeat if any injury flares up!! They’re amazing, qualified, intentional and knowledgeable about….everything! Highly recommended and would never go anywhere else!

(I did try somewhere else one time, my company offered it and it was closer to my house- when I told the physical therapist I normally go to Peak Physical therapy, she paused and looked at me and said in Cupertino? I said yes, she said oh they have the best reputation, they’re a really good place from what I hear)! I was so surprised, when she gave me exercises that made the knee pain worse I returned to make the longer drive to get better results! Peak Physical therapy is the best place! Period! I can run and I finished the Ironman run with ZERO knee pain!!!”
