Runner's Knee Physical Therapy in Keller, TX

Run Without Knee Pain Holding You Back

Whether you're training for your next race or just trying to maintain your weekly mileage, knee pain shouldn't be the reason you stop. We help runners in Keller get back to consistent training without fear of making it worse.

You're Tired of Letting Knee Pain Control Your Training

Your Runs Are Getting Shorter

You're cutting miles because of that nagging pain around your kneecap. What used to be an easy 5-miler now feels like a struggle at mile 2. You're worried about losing the fitness you worked so hard to build.

Rest Isn't Working

You've tried taking time off, but every time you lace up again, the pain comes back within the first mile. Generic advice to 'just rest' or 'ice it' isn't fixing the underlying problem.

You're Worried About Permanent Damage

The fear of making it worse is real. You're wondering if you'll ever be able to run without pain again, or if this is just something you'll have to manage forever.

What Runners in Keller Say

Trusted by runners across Keller and North Fort Worth

Dr. Ryans practice Elevation Athletics is such a top notch program. Our son had been struggling with continual ankle pain in his sport for 18months. After working with Dr. Ryan he is now pain free and in a maintenance program to keep his strength up! We are so grateful for everyone at this practice - the friendly environment and extremely unique approach to PT therapy has been awesome.

I came to Elevation Athletics to treat a rotar cuff strain and later I experience an shoulder AC joint injury. They (Dr. Bailey Inman) provide treatment and exercise regimen to be perform at least twice a week. I have regained my strength in both the rotar cuff and AC joint that allows me to perform shoulder related exercises without pain or movement restrictions.

I’m so happy I found Dr. Ryan. I was almost 3 months into CrossFit & my knee started hurting. I was about to quit, thinking maybe CrossFit wasn’t for me. But then I found Dr Ryan! He was able to help me with my pain & get me back on track again! He truly listens & is great at what he does. I highly recommend!

Runner's Knee FAQs

Common questions about runner's knee treatment in Keller, TX

How often will I be seen, and for how long?

Most athletes start 1–2x/week, then taper as pain drops and strength climbs. We use simple benchmarks and return-to-sport testing so you know exactly when you’re ready to push, compete, and maintain on your own.

What kinds of issues do you treat?

We help active adults with shoulder, knee, back, hip, and sport-related pain—from overhead pressing and squatting to running and pickleball. Your plan is built around your sport and schedule, not a generic sheet of exercises.

Do I have to stop working out while rehabbing?

Usually, no. We keep you moving with modified lifts and conditioning so you maintain strength and momentum while tissues heal. You’ll know exactly what’s green-light, what’s yellow-light, and how to progress week by week.
