A running gait analysis can benefit runners at any level, injured on non-injured. We offer comprehensive, detailed 2D and 3D running gait analysis (as well as a virtual running gait analysis option) and follow up sessions for those looking to improve running form and speed while working towards lowering their risk of injury. And yes, a 2D analysis is covered by insurance when related to a running injury.
We Can Help You With One of The Following Gait Analysis Options
Gait Analysis for Running Injuries or Prevention (Cost is dependent on insurance)
We will perform a gait analysis on all runners that come to The Running PTs for a running related injury if we feel that run form is indicated. Your insurance will cover this as part of your plan of care. If you would like to utilize your insurance we can schedule you for a physical therapy evaluation and we will perform a 2D gait analysis if indicated. We would address any issues you are dealing with or have had in the past that you are trying to avoid. When you schedule your PT evaluation let us know you are interested in having your gait assessed. Cost is dependent on your insurance but it is covered under all plans.
2D Gait Analysis ($150)
We offer a 2D gait analysis for those runners that are not injured, and simply looking to prevent injury and improve performance. In a 2D analysis we will do a PT evaluation (which is an imperative step in getting to the root of the problem) and perform a 2D analysis with an iPad on a 2D software (think videos from the front, side, and back).
3D Gait Analysis ($450)
We also offer a comprehensive 3D gait analysis. Our 3D gait analysis is the most in-depth look at your running using our state of the art 3D motion capture system. A 3D gait analysis includes the initial analysis and a follow-up visit to discuss the data acquired during your 3D analysis. Here’s an example of the report that you get from a 3D analysis. We will interpret the 3D for you and come up with a plan that works towards your goals. The cost is $450.
Virtual Gait Analysis ($150)
For those that don’t live in North Carolina, we offer a virtual running gait analysis. We will review your run form and offer our suggestions to prevent an injury and become more efficient. We offer an option to meet virtually at no additional cost if you would like, or we can simply email you a form with what we found. Whether you want help with injury prevention or to be more efficient, we can help you improve your running form. Cost is $150.

“It is difficult to find practitioners anywhere with this much experience and knowledge. As a runner/triathlete, I have worked a lot with Lee Welch. He is a great and trustworthy physical therapist, a great clinician and an educator. The Running PTs and BYoung Physical Therapy base their work on evidence and are willing to try alternate approaches after discussing with the client. I appreciate that he adjusts his approach based on the latest research in physical therapy. They are impressive, and at the same time kind, gentle and very present.”
