Next Level Physio

Next Level Physio We Help Active Adults and Their Families STAY Active without Surgery or Medication. Sound like you? Visit us at gonextlevelphysio.com to learn more.

5 reasons why clients choose us:

1) You’re frustrated or worried about not being able to return to your favorite activities without pain.

2) You’ve tried physical therapy before, but didn’t get the individualized care you deserve.

3) Your previous physical therapist didn’t understand that you’re a “can’t stop, won’t stop” fitness fanatic.

4) When you went to physical therapy in the past, you were given the same basic, cookie-cutter exercise program for MONTHS. What a time waster!

5) You want to excel or maintain your favorite physical activities, but can’t because your weaker, stiffer, and less mobile than you used to be. Let’s help you MOVE.EXCEL.INSPIRE

A runner comes in and says: “My doctor told me to stop running.” 🏃‍♂️

❌ That’s not the solution. Stopping completely can:
• Decondition your heart & lungs
• Make tendons stiffer
• Reduce muscle performance

✅ What we do instead:
• Reduce mileage
• Dial in running mechanics
• Strength training while off your feet

Only serious injuries like bone stress fractures or chest injuries require full rest. Otherwise, you can keep moving, stay strong, and recover smarter.

Ever wonder why runners don’t “accidentally” get bulky? 🏃‍♂️

Your body only builds muscle when it’s required.
Running demands efficiency, not size — which is why marathon training, high mileage, and constant calorie burn push your body to stay lean.

💥 Bulking takes:
• High-volume strength training
• Heavy loads
• Caloric surplus
• Intentional protein intake

That’s the opposite of long-distance running.

If you run a lot, your body is adapting to endurance, efficiency, and energy conservation — not muscle mass.

🚫 “You can’t change running gait.”
We disagree — strongly.

As physical therapists, we change human movement every single day. So why would running form be the exception?

🏃‍♂️ Running = thousands of repetitions.
Just 3 miles, 3x a week? That’s 18,000 steps.
If one side is injured, that’s 9,000 chances to reduce pain with one simple cue.

💡 Gait retraining doesn’t mean overhauling everything.
Small, intentional changes in running mechanics can lead to immediate pain relief and long-term efficiency.

So yes — running gait CAN change.
And sometimes, that one change is all it takes.
