Providence Sports Injuries Therapy and Prevention offers comprehensive evaluation and treatment, focusing on returning injured athletes to activity as quickly and safely as possible. Since every sport requires something different of an athlete, your particular sport or exercise routine will play an integral role in your evaluation and treatment plan.
If running is your sport, you understand the importance of staying healthy, understanding your body’s personal running “mechanics,” and avoiding injury. And if you’re injured or feeling pain while running, you want to heal effectively and quickly.
Getting an expert running analysis can help you achieve all your running goals. Using specialized running analysis, our sports physical therapists can evaluate your running mechanics, teach you exercise drills to improve your efficiency, and provide exercises to get you back on track in no time.
Our sports therapy experts use treadmill video analysis, biomechanical assessment and movement screens to help you with:
- Technique correction
- Footwear guidance
- Coaching collaboration
All levels can benefit from our expert analysis, including runners who are:
- Recreational
- Novice
- Masters
- Competitive
- Triathletes
- Recovering post-surgery
- Rehabilitating after an injury

Since every sport requires something different of an athlete, your particular sport or exercise routine will play an integral role in your evaluation and treatment plan.
In order to make the most of your sessions, we ask that you wear comfortable, loose-fitting clothing. Exercise clothing, such as sweats, T-shirts and shorts, is most appropriate.
Because you are the primary focus of our care, your active participation is essential to a successful rehabilitation program. The following guidelines are highly recommended to enhance the achievement of your goals.
- Follow through with any prescribed home exercise programs.
- Report any significant changes in symptoms, medications and function.
- Keep all scheduled appointments.
- Arrive on time to all appointments to provide maximum time with your therapist.
