Running Analysis in Lafayette and shreveport, LA

What it is
Running Analysis at FHPT is a head-to-toe look at how you move when your feet hit the ground. We film your gait from multiple angles, review cadence, foot strike, stride length, hip and trunk control, and how you load each leg. Then we connect the dots between what we see and what you feel. The goal is simple. Find the true cause of pain or inefficiency and build an actionable plan that makes running feel smooth again.
Who it helps
This service is for new runners, seasoned racers, and anyone in between. It fits sprinters who want better acceleration, distance runners who fade late in races, and weekend athletes dealing with shin splints, knee pain, hip ache, Achilles tightness, or plantar fasciitis. If you keep getting the same nagging issue or your pace stalls no matter how much you train, a clear gait assessment can be unlocked.
Why FHPT
Fulco & Hall Performance & Therapy blends clinical insight with real coaching. You are assessed by licensed professionals who treat running injuries every day. We do not hand you a generic printout. We show you your exact movement patterns, explain what matters, and coach the few changes that deliver the biggest return. You get a targeted mix of drills, strength work, mobility, and footwear guidance so your form changes stick when you leave the clinic.
