RUNNING GAIT ANALYSIS IN BOSTON
Finally understand how you run and what to do about it
Alterra's Premier Runner Evaluation includes a full running gait analysis as part of a holistic, 90-minute deep dive into how your body moves and your running ecosystem. You'll leave with answers, a plan, and everything in writing.
You've been ramping up your training, but something feels off.
Maybe it's a recurring injury that keeps coming back in the same spot. Maybe it's something brand new that hasn't gone away with rest.
Maybe your issue isn't that bad now, but you don't think it will scale well.
A gait analysis can give you a lot of data, but a Premier Runner Evaluation at Alterra is built to give you answers.
It's not just a gait analysis — it's a comprehensive evaluation built specifically for runners.
WHAT'S INCLUDED IN YOUR PREMIER RUNNER EVALUATION
01
Running-specific clinical evaluation
A thorough physical assessment based on the demands of running, including running specific benchmarks to make sure that you have the mobility and strength to run well.

WHAT TO EXPECT AT ALTERRA
One-On-One
Appointments
Every session is 60 minutes, just you and your therapist. No double-booking, no handoffs to an aide, no 15 minutes of actual PT followed by 45 minutes on a stationary bike. If you're here, you have our full attention for the whole hour.
That attention doesn't stop when you walk out the door. Got a question on Sunday about whether you should run through some soreness? Text your therapist. Most of our patients have our number and actually use it, because getting a quick answer when something comes up is a lot better than waiting until your next appointment to find out you made it worse.
Comprehensive Treatment Plans
A lot of runners leave PT appointments without clarity on what they should be doing outside of their sessions.
We don't let that happen here at Alterra.
You'll know each week what is expected of you with specific assigned runs, strength training, and PT exercises. We also work out guardrails together, so if something starts feeling off between sessions, you know how to adjust on the fly rather than just white-knuckling it until your next appointment.
Pricing Transparency
Alterra is an out-of-network, cash-pay practice. That means we don't bill insurance directly — but it also means you get a full 60 minutes, one on one, every single visit. No double-booking, no aides, no rushed appointments.
Most of our patients work with us without using their insurance because they get higher quality care from someone who specializes in treating runners. If you value that too, you're in the right place!
