Video Telehealth Gait Retraining for Running-Related Knee Pain

Telehealth gait retraining is a novel approach to train participants to adopt a non-rearfoot foot strike pattern during running via telecommunications. During telehealth gait retraining, video of a participant's running form are sent to clinicians over a mobile device app and running form feedback is given. This process is repeated once a week for four weeks and then every other week until week 8.

Participants receiving standard Physical Therapy will visit the Physical Therapy Clinic every 2 to 3 weeks to be treated by a Physical Therapist.

The Return to Running protocol is a six-phase running volume progression to re-introduce running slowly and safely after experiencing a running-related injury.

The At Home Exercise Program consists of 4 lower leg and foot exercises that participants can perform on their own time.
