Improve your Athletic Performance

In addition to treating your pain due to a sports related injury,
​we can also help athletes improve athletic performance.
Improve your running gait and stride by using cutting edge precision video analysis.
Increase your power distribution and strength as well as improving form and flexibility. 
Increase your balance and range of motion while lengthening your muscles for better performance.
Accelerate your body's healing process while reducing risk of future injury and muscle adhesions.
Are you experiencing neck pain, back pain, knee pain, shoulder pain, hip pain, or pain in other areas of your body? Do you live in the Little Rock, Arkansas area? ​Athletes in Pain is here to help you!

I use slow motion video gait & posture analysis to see where your pain is stemming from, myofascial release that gets to the source of your pain (not just the symptoms), video range-of-motion testing and training plans to rehabilitate your fascia and painful areas in your body and get you back to what you love to do.From Olympic Athletes to people who just like to stay active and live pain free, I can help you get back in the game. 

What Makes Athletes in Pain Different?

Holistic Approach

I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms. My holistic approach encompasses various modalities, including manual therapies, targeted exercises, rehabilitation, and more, to address your pain at the source.

Athletic Performance

Our cutting edge techniques can improve your athletic performance. Improve your running gait and stride with our precision video analysis. Increase your power distribution and strength as well as improve your form and flexibility to perform better when it counts.

Stride Right Solutions for runners.

Slow motion gait analysis is paving the highway of the future in evaluating precise human movement and is the most technologically advanced system available today. Repetitive training in sports often leads to flexibility imbalances and poor stability, as well as an impairment of functional strength. Gait analysis and proper functional movement can revolutionize your athletic performance. 

​Simply put, our gait is our way our body moves allowing us to move from point A to point B.  Our slow motion video analysis system closely examines every aspect of the quality of that movement, allowing us to examine at 60 frames per second any abnormalities or obvious weak links in your chain that could lead to injuries addressing the following: muscle length, joint mobility, joint stability, motor control and coordination, appropriate muscle action, signs of fascia restrictions, and functional strength.

What is Fascia?

Many athletes understand the important roles that muscles, tendons and ligaments play in fitness, athletics and sports. However, fascia is another tissue in the body that plays an equally important role, and has been an area of increasing research and interest with the sports medicine world.

So What is Fascia? Fascia is a network of connective tissues that is both continuous and contiguous throughout the entire body. Fascia runs from the bottom of your feet in a clockwise spiral all the way to the top of your head. That is to say just about every structure in the human body is covered, surrounded, or attached to fascia is some way. Most importantly to an athlete, fascia surrounds muscles, blood vessels, and nerves, binding these structures together much like plastic warp can be used to hold the contents of a sandwich together. There are 3 layers of fascia. In 1995, they did testing to fascia and confirmed it as the strongest substance in the human body. because it can hold up to 2500 pounds per square inch.

Fascia and Muscle Function

Maintaining "healthy" proper functioning fascia can have a significant impact on muscle strength, biomechanics and athletic performance. As with any tissues fascia can become irritated and inflamed. If fascia is chronically inflamed, fibrosis and/or thickening of the tissue can occur resulting in decreased compliance and motion.

This often leads to pain, irritation, reflexive muscle tension, fatigue, poor biomechanics and even greater inflammation. This cycle of inflammation and decreasing function can be a significant downward spiral resulting in worsening fascial inflammation and as thus worsening muscle function and symptoms.
