Atlanta Runners Need Specialized Care

  • Running places repetitive, high-impact stress on joints, muscles, and tendons.

  • Many injuries develop from training errors, form issues, or muscle imbalances.

  • Generic rehab often ignores the demands of running which can lead to recurring pain.

  • Recovery plans should match your training schedule and race goals.

  • Running physical therapy should understand splits, mileage, and the mental side of the sport.

Don’t let an injury ruin months of training
