Ever wonder what dry needling actually looks like?

This is dry needling for calf muscle tightness — targeting trigger points to help reduce pain and improve movement.

If you’ve dealt with tight calves from running, this is one tool we may use as part of a bigger plan.

Heel pain on those first steps of your morning? If you're a runner, you likely know the dreaded feeling of plantar fasciitis too well.

At The Running PTs, we don’t believe in just resting while you wait for the pain to go away. We believe in mechanical offloading and strategic loading to keep you moving while you heal.

One of the most effective tools in our toolbox? Specialized plantar fascia insoles. But it’s not just about the cushion—it’s about how that support changes your whole gait cycle.

We’re breaking down how specialized support actually protects your stride, the difference between OTC vs. custom orthotics, and why an insert is only one part of the puzzle. Check out our latest blog post to learn how we can help you get back to pain-free miles!
