If you’re trying on shoes that feel heavy, stiff, clunky, or not “just right,” they likely are the wrong shoes for you.

The proper pair will feel balanced and level.

YOUR HEALTH IN MIND! The staff at Accelerate Therapy is focused on keeping you healthy and our equipment and facilities clean. To prevent the spread of COVID-19, we want to also encourage our patients to help prevent the spread of coronavirus by:

Wear Shoes True to Size. Running shoes should have ample toe room, but secure from the ball of the foot to the heel. Your feet will splay out over time and it’s not uncommon to go up in size. Running shoes won’t break in, so they need to feel like they fit the second you put them on.

Keep Your Feet Level. If you feel your arches “tipping in” or “pushed out”, then the support is wrong for you. Too much support will restrict your foot and give the feeling you’re tipped out. Too little

“I just recently went back to Accelerate for a “tune-up”. I had previously received therapy from ATP for a weak lower back and hip, had a fantastic experience, and met my goals–everything was “running” well. Unfortunately, over time, I did not maintain my exercise program, made some poor decisions with some of my work habits, and just got sloppy with my back and hip. Fortunately these highly skilled “mechanics” (therapists) were able to review my history, investigate my new concerns, and formulated a new and revised therapy and exercise program. I am happy to say I am “back on the road again,” and I look forward to a future of many more pain-free “miles.” Thank you, Jessica– you made it easy for me. You always listened, had loads of patience, a great sense of humor, sand were so very skilled and professional with the delivery of therapy. It was worth my drive from Lexington to Salisbury. Sincere Thanks!” - Donna W.
