Heel pain or plantar fasciitis is a very common musculoskeletal (involving bone, muscle, ligaments, joints, etc) injury that many athletes and non athletes experience, but who is the best expert who you should consult with regarding your injury.

A recent research article analyzed musculoskeletal knowledge of physical therapists and physicians.  A 73% was considered passing. The results were:

• Physical therapists demonstrated higher levels of knowledge than most physicians.
• A board certified physical therapist scored higher than non-board certified physical therapist

The results of this study show that a board certified physical therapist is considered one of the most knowledgeable experts regarding musculoskeletal conditions and are capable of providing safe and effective care for your injury. 

As a patient, you need to know that you are in good hands and you are being taken care of by the best.  The Pursuit Physical Therapy staff has unmatched academic credentials and you will always be treated by a board certified specialist.   Moreover, Pursuit Physical Therapy prides itself on promoting only the very best evidence-based practice with optimal patient care, and patient satisfaction.  So this means you can get better in fewer visits, saving time and money.  For more information about our staff, patient testimonials, and about Pursuit Physical Therapy, visit us at PursuitTherapy.com or call us as 407-494-8835 to schedule your COMPLEMENTARY CONSULTATION today!  Get PAIN FREE now!

The 5 tips for pain free running series

Do you ever get pain when running?  Tired of having knee pain after a run when walking up stairs?   This is going to be the blog for you!

First, I would like to say thank you to Fleet Feet Orlando and I am very grateful to them for asking me to write as a guest blogger.  This series will be posted to their blog here as they start their No Boundaries Running Program.  I thoroughly enjoy treating runners and helping them get back to doing the activity they love....running.  Not just running , but pain free running!  Over the next several weeks, as the racing season starts, I will be posting  a 5 part series that will review 5 simple tips that can help prevent running injuries. Most running injuries occur due to 3 things: structural issues, training errors, and biomechanical errors, and simple changes can be made to correct any dysfunction that is present that may lead to injury.  We will be addressing the treatment, prevention, and certain strategies that me help with plantar fasciitis, runner's knee, IT Band syndrome, and more.  For more information about me, Pursuit Physical Therapy, the Running Injury Program, and about treatment of running injuries, visit www.PursuitTherapy.com.
