how we keep runners on the road…

✓Why do I have pain when I run?

Our running specialists are highly skilled at diagnosing and treating common running injuries such as plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, runner’s knee, shin splints, stress fractures, IT Band Syndrome, pulled muscles, hamstring strains, and patellar tendinitis.

Pain isn’t always what it seems. You might think it’s your knee, but the real issue could be weak glutes. Our experts will find the true cause and get you on the right path to recovery.

✓Strengthening for Runners

It’s no secret that runners love to run—but strength training, flexibility, and mobility are just as important. Our Doctors of Physical Therapy (DPTs) will create a customized strength program to address weaknesses, improve running performance, and prevent future injuries.

✓running technique and gait analysis

Poor movement patterns and inefficient running form can lead to injury and slow you down. Our running specialists will analyze your gait and biomechanics to help you establish more efficient mechanics, reduce impact forces, and run pain-free.

✓tune-ups for runners

Don’t wait until you’re sidelined! Our runners love coming in for pre-race tune-ups or quick PT sessions as soon as something feels off. Whether it’s a minor ache or you just want to feel your best on race day, a few targeted sessions can help optimize performance.

✓recovery for runners

Faster recovery = better performance. Our Recovery Lounge features Normatec Compression Boots and Sleeves, a secret weapon used by elite athletes to reduce soreness, improve circulation, and speed up muscle recovery—so you can train harder and recover faster.

“While training for the NYC Marathon, my chronic ankle injury was causing pain. I had been to many clinics, but they were all mills with no personal attention.

My DPT at Iron Physical Therapy was a runner and an athlete...a different kind of physical therapist who provided specific, personal, and targeted attention. I did not know PTs like him even existed!

Only six weeks later, I realized my life long goal and and successfully ran a marathon pain free.
