I came in mainly for a running analysis and to see if we could identify what was causing my knee pain while running. She was very thorough and the visit was educational which I appreciated. She took several videos in addition to my running analysis so it was good to see what was going on and the suggestions she made were very tailored to me which I appreciate.
