How Physical Therapy Helps Runners Run Faster and Safer
Running places repetitive stress on the body, and even small inefficiencies can lead to injury or slow your progress. At Physio Physical Therapy, we go beyond symptom relief to identify and correct the root cause of pain or performance limitations.
