Running Physical Therapy in Winston-Salem, NC
Stop the Cycle of Rest, Recover, and Repeat
Runners come to us when knee pain, IT band issues, or achilles pain keeps cutting training short. We find the root cause and get you back running, one-on-one, every session.
Most Running Injuries Come Back Because the Root Cause Never Gets Addressed
You Modify Your Runs, Then Stop Running Altogether
Rest helps for a few days, but the pain comes right back as soon as you ramp up mileage. Without understanding what's driving it, you're stuck in the same cycle every training block.
Your Race Calendar Keeps Getting Derailed by the Same Issues
You train through it, back off when it flares, and never feel confident your body will hold up through a full training block.
Generic PT Gives You Band Exercises and No Real Running Plan
Most PT clinics don't specialize in runners. You get a generic protocol, not a plan built around your mileage, race goals, and the mechanics actually driving your injury.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about running physical therapy and return-to-running care at KPR.
Not necessarily. We adjust your training load so you can keep running where possible while we address the root cause. Most runners continue training throughout their care, they just do it more intentionally, with smarter loads and better mechanics guiding each session.
It depends on the injury, how long it's been going on, and your training goals. After your first session, we'll give you a realistic timeline and adjust it as you respond to treatment. Most runners see meaningful progress within the first few weeks of working on mechanics and loading.
Yes. We see marathoners, half marathon runners, trail athletes, and people who run a few days a week for fitness. The approach is the same: find the root cause, fix the mechanics, and build you back to the mileage you want to run.
We use video-based gait analysis to assess your running mechanics under load. It helps us identify the movement patterns contributing to your injury so we can target them directly rather than treating symptoms in isolation. Most evaluations include a baseline gait screen as part of the initial assessment.
We are in-network with Aetna, and HSA and FSA payments are accepted for all visits. For patients not on Aetna, we offer transparent cash-pay rates so you know exactly what you're paying. We can also provide a superbill for possible out-of-network reimbursement.
