Running Analysis with Dartfish Technology

In Motion Physical therapy provides a running/gait analysis that integrates the skills and knowledge of our expert physical therapist with high speed video analysis called “Dartfish.” Dartfish allows our specially trained therapists to slow down human movement in order to pinpoint deviations and ineffective movement patterns in a patient’s running and walking form.

Some conditions benefiting from Dartfish include:

• Shin splints
• Achilles tendonitis
• Patellofemoral pain syndrome
• IT Band syndrome
• Patella tendonitis
• Chronic hamstring strain

For our athletic patients, after a video analysis is performed, our sports performance team can use the footage to make footwear and orthotic recommendations. Our physical therapist can also discuss exercises and drills to adjust incorrect running and walking mechanics, which may be contributing to injuries.

At Bon Secours In Motion, each of our patients receives one-on-one attention from a licensed physical therapist. Each is also given an individualized treatment plan that includes a full musculoskeletal evaluation to assess for strength and flexibility deficits that may lead to injuries. This specialized program can be covered by insurance on a prescription basis with a valid diagnosis.
