RecoverRx Peformance Physical Therapy Approach
1. Break the pain cycle through education, manual therapy, and increasing tissue mobility – WHILE staying active & training
2. Improve the underlying mobility, strength, and running form issues that likely lead to the issue in the first place
3. Load the tissue to improve strength, power, and endurance so you can train without limits and optimize your performance
How Can A Video Running Analysis Help Me?
Proper running form optimizes body efficiency, improves speed, and reduces risk of injury. A video running analysis is a great tool whether you are new to running and want to develop good techniques, have been running for years and want to optimize biomechanics, or started having pain during your runs. Through our video software and expertise analysis, we can help find and correct postural concerns, knee and ankle alignment issues, muscular weakness, and technique flaws to help make you a stronger and more injury resilient runner.

“I cannot recommend Dr. Megan enough! She is not only highly knowledgeable in her field but also incredibly patient and creative in her approach to therapy. She always took the time to explain everything clearly, ensuring I felt confident and informed throughout my sessions. Her ability to think outside the box and tailor exercises to my unique needs made a significant difference in my progress. What truly sets her apart is her genuine care and encouragement. She created a positive, supportive environment where I felt comfortable asking questions and pushing my limits. I have unique needs and Dr. Megan took the time to research what would be best for me and prepared a plan of care that fit all my needs. Thanks to her expertise and dedication, I’ve achieved milestones I never thought possible. If you’re looking for a physical therapist who goes above and beyond, Dr. Megan is the one!”

“Luke did a fabulous job helping me rehab my rotator shoulder injury! He was so flexible on schedule with my work and travel and really exceeding all my expectations on the PT I got. I have had other issues like a knee repair procedure and had to live with middle of the day scheduling and standard canned approaches. Luke took the time with he and gave me the customized exercises I needed, worked with me on my lifting form to avoid future injuries, and did a variety of dry needle and other manipulation therapies that were very effective. I am back lifting and am really pleased with my progress! My knee had a short-term aggravation that he solved too during my other PT work which avoided more appointments and time challenges. I whole heartedly recommend Luke and his clinic for PT! Thank you so much, Luke! Great Work!”

“Dr. David Bokermann was amazing to work with. I was referred to RecoverRX by a close friend because I was having a lot of shoulder pain. At one point I was having trouble just being able to put on deodorant because the pain was so bad. I though for sure that I was going to need to have surgery. I just figured I was getting old and all of the abuse that I put my arm through in my youth was catching up to me. Dr. David explained that I wasn’t going to need surgery and that what I had was a muscle imbalance. I signed up for 10 sessions with him and I am happy to say that I am pain free again. I would highly recommend them to anyone.”
