Think slow-motion video tells you everything about your running form? Not quite.

In our latest blog, we explain why video alone often misses the most important factors behind running injuries and inefficiency — and how advanced gait analysis using sensor technology fills in the gaps.

If you’ve been told “your form looks fine” but things still don’t feel right, this is worth a read 👇

Are core exercises during pregnancy “bad”?
Short answer: nope. And the research finally caught up.

Ever wonder what we assess during a gait analysis?

In addition to reviewing slow-motion video of your running, we use a Runeasi to capture data we can’t see with video alone. This gives us deeper insight into how your body is actually behaving with each step.

The Runeasi sensor provides a Running Quality Score, which we like to think of as an injury risk assessment. This score is informed by three main parameters:
• Dynamic stability
• Impact loading
• Symmetry

Over the next few weeks, we’ll break down each of these data points, what they mean for your running, and how we use them to individualize your treatment and return-to-run plan. Because better data leads to better decisions, which leads to stronger, healthier, and happier running.

If you’ve “done PT” before but your pain keeps coming back… you’re not alone.

Our running gait analysis pairs slow-motion video breakdown with objective data from the Runeasi sensor to uncover movement patterns and loading strategies that can contribute to nagging injuries—things you can’t always feel while you’re running. 👟

At Run Rx, we don’t rely on tech alone. We combine gait analysis with hands-on, one-on-one care and a thorough off-treadmill assessment from PTs who specialize in runners. 📹👩‍⚕️

Different approach. Better answers. Lasting progress. 🏃‍♀️✨

How is your motor control?

In PT, it’s common to see runners excel at traditional lifting, and then get challenged by movements that require core control, balance, and coordination. Those “simpler” exercises can be the hardest - and they matter. They build the foundation that supports efficient running, better load management, and long-term durability.

Good PT should feel fun, but also challenging in the right ways. It’s not about jumping straight into the hardest or heaviest movement; it’s about mastering the basics first. When runners understand why they’re doing certain exercises and feel progress each session, it’s easier to commit to the process.

Coming back from injury isn’t just about getting stronger- it’s about relearning how to move with confidence.

For runners, the right cues and guidance in a PT setting matter because they help reconnect the brain to the body. After time off, compensations sneak in, fear can linger, and old habits show up without you realizing it. Thoughtful cueing brings awareness back to your movement, helping you load tissues appropriately, rebuild trust in your stride, and progress without rushing the process.
