What Runner’s Knee Therapy Actually Looks Like

Runner’s knee, often called patellofemoral pain, is treatable when you address the real cause.  

At Up and Running Physical Therapy, your plan includes a thorough evaluation, strength and mobility work, hands-on treatment, and a smart return-to-run progression.

A common myth is that you just need to rest longer.  

Rest alone rarely fixes the problem. The right load, the right exercises, and the right running progression do.

We assess your gait, hip and knee strength, ankle mobility, training load, footwear, and terrain.  

Then we build a step-by-step program that reduces pain now and prevents it from coming back.

Local Care Built For Fort Collins Runners

Fort Collins is a runner’s paradise with Horsetooth Reservoir climbs, the Poudre River Trail, and crisp mornings around City Park.

We design your plan around your routes, race calendar, and the demands of hills, trails, and altitude.  

Whether you’re logging miles on the CSU campus loop or training for Quad Rock, we’ll keep you strong and moving.

Your Fastest Path Back Starts Today

If you want fewer aches, stronger strides, and confident running, now is the time to act.
