THE TRUE SPORT CARE APPROACH
Strength for the next demand.
Care with a purpose.
Walking, stairs and returning to sport are different milestones. Bring your current activity level and the next task you want to achieve. This helps make progress something you can recognize outside the treatment room.
EVALUATION BEFORE TREATMENT
Specific findings.
A practical plan.
Our clinic brings chiropractic care, physical therapy, soft tissue work and therapeutic exercise into the rehabilitation conversation. The combination is guided by the examination and your goals.
Meet Dr. James Pierre-Glaude, physical therapist ↗Understand your starting point
The appointment considers recent training changes, stairs, squat tolerance and the movements that reproduce symptoms. Bring your previous diagnosis and reports so we can connect that history with your present concerns.
Connect care to your goals
The conversation focuses on building capacity for the running or everyday activity you want to resume. Discuss which movements need attention and what you can work on between visits.
Physical therapy & rehabilitation ↗Reassess what changes
Tell us which tasks are becoming easier and which remain limited. The plan should respond to progress, not simply repeat the same session. If the findings call for another kind of assessment, that becomes part of the next-step discussion.

a starting point.
Describe what has changed
When did the problem begin? What can you no longer do comfortably? Tell us about previous care and the activities you want to get back to.
Make the evaluation relevant
For this concern, useful details include recent training changes, stairs, squat tolerance and the movements that reproduce symptoms. Wear clothing that allows the area to be examined and lets you move comfortably.
Agree on the next steps
Discuss the findings, appointment plan and home exercises or activity changes. If you have a surgeon’s protocol or medical restrictions, bring them to the visit.
BEFORE YOUR VISIT
Your questions.
Clear answers.
Is runner’s knee the same as jumper’s knee?
No. Patellofemoral pain is centered around the kneecap region. Jumper’s knee refers to patellar tendon pain, commonly below the kneecap. The location and examination help distinguish them.
What running details are useful at the evaluation?
Bring recent changes in distance, frequency, speed, hills and strength training. Explain whether stairs and prolonged sitting also hurt. The plan should reflect your full activity load, not just weekly mileage.
