Most runners that we see have more than one underlying factor that predisposes them to recurring overuse injury and pain.

Pain and in-efficient movement tend to go hand in hand. Pain can be a sign of in-efficient movement, by addressing the underlying causes of pain you will not only feel better but improve your performance as well.

“Now I can train freely and aggressively toward my goal in winning an Olympic Gold medal in Tokyo.”

“I first went to seek physical therapy to help me cope with an achilles injury that I have had for over a year. A close friend of mine recommended Kyle to me and I find that word of mouth recommendations go a long way. My friend had a very positive experience when working with Kyle and Cara so I felt that it would work for me as well. I have benefited greatly from working with Kyle the past 3 months on an injury that kept me sidelined for almost a year and now I can train freely and aggressively toward my goal in winning an Olympic Gold medal in Tokyo. My experience has been nothing but amazing, Kyle has been diligent in treating my injury as well as fixing other issues that may have led to the injury in the first place. Throughout the week we are in constant communication to ensure that I continue to feel great and to see if there is anything more GOfit PT can do for me. I would 100% recommend GOfit Physical Therapy to anyone that wants and needs hands-on attention coming from some of the most knowledgeable Physical Therapists. Thanks GOfit PT!”

“I can’t recommend him enough for anyone, especially people looking to get back to their sports and activities quickly.”

“As a recreational triathlete, I initially sought out a physical therapist for some running related injuries. I had heard of GOfit PT from another physician who highly recommended their services. When first meeting Kyle I was very impressed with the thorough and systematic history he took in regard to my activities and injury. When he examined and treated me it was obvious he had a great knowledge of anatomy. I initially saw him for an IT band issue and have since seen him for other issues including shoulder, piriformis, and lower back issues. I love how he really tries to seek the root cause of the problem to figure out how it happened and prescribing treatment that not only fixes the problem but aims to prevent it from recurring in the future. His manual therapy skills are impressive and I have had great results with his treatments and follow up exercises. I can’t recommend him enough for anyone, especially people looking to get back to their sports and activities quickly.”

“I ran a personal best time in the Marathon and know that wouldn’t have happened without Kyle’s help!”

“I am a runner and was starting to train for the Chicago Marathon, a longtime dream! I began to have hip and knee pain - minor at first, but it quickly progressed to severe pain whenever I tried to run. I researched local PTs and found GOfit. They seemed interested in helping athletes and making personal connections, and I was very impressed with their credentials.

In the first session, Kyle put me at ease with his professionalism and expertise. He identified the cause of my pain and treated the localized painful areas with dry needling. More importantly, he gave me strengthening exercises to treat the underlying muscle weakness and keep me running in the long term. After a few sessions with Kyle I started running again, and I soon after resumed training. I ran a personal best time in the Marathon and know that wouldn’t have happened without Kyle’s help! He got to know me as an individual and understand my running ambitions, and together we formed a plan that would get me running again quickly but safely.

I would absolutely recommend GOfit physical therapy. The care they provide is both effective and personalized, which can be a rare combination in healthcare. Trusting Kyle with my rehab was the best decision I’ve made as a runner! ”

What can you expect?

At GOfit Physical Therapy we look to find the root cause of your problem.

So not only will we assess and treat your pain, but we will also look at other regions that may be contributing to your symptoms.

If there is one structure along the chain that is not functioning optimally it can cause pain and dysfunction in surrounding or remote regions.

All structures including joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons are assessed. We look at strength, coordination, movement patterns, mobility, and flexibility.

By finding the root cause of your problem, we are then able to help reduce your current pain and prevent it from happening again in the future.

We will then work to retrain your movement patterns to help you return to running.

This is important because your body may be used to unhealthy body positions or movement patterns.

We use a variety of treatment techniques including manual therapy (hands-on treatment), exercise, and neuromuscular re-education (retraining your body).
