What Is a 3D Gait Analysis?
A 3D Gait Analysis is the gold standard for assessing running mechanics, using advanced motion-capture to deliver precise, real-time movement data.
We analyze critical metrics such as:
- Cadence: Steps per minute to optimize stride efficiency.
- Foot Strike Patterns: Analyze pressure distribution and contact phase for injury prevention.
- Leg Stiffness & Ground Contact Time: Assess symmetry, springiness, and running economy.
- Joint Angles & Alignment: Highlight key areas like hip rotation and tibial inclination.
- Stride Length & Vertical Oscillation: Optimize running economy by reducing wasted motion.

I went in with a partial rotator cuff tear and significant pain and it is now almost 100% pain-free. Range of motion and strength are back to normal. Julie was fantastic to work with and is very knowledgeable. She’s a pro. Tori starts your visit off with a friendly smile and warm greeting. The whole staff is fantastic. Highly recommend.

I love my Fyzical office! The staff is professional and friendly. Dr. Soranno listens to my concerns and modifies activities based upon my needs and limitations. Also, they have great follow-through and are always checking in on me. I’ve recommended them several times to family and friends, and I have absolute confidence in their services.
FAQs
Is 3D Gait Analysis only for runners?
Not at all! While runners see tremendous benefits, the analysis is valuable for anyone looking to move more efficiently, prevent injuries, or address chronic pain.
Do I need to be an experienced runner to benefit from your services?
Not at all! Our services cater to all levels, from beginners to elite athletes.
How are your running plans customized?
Our running plans are designed based on your current 3D Gait Analysis, making them truly customized to YOU!! They also take into consideration fitness level, running history, and personal goals.
Can strength training really make a difference in my running?
Absolutely! Many runners make the mistake of believing that their legs will be strong and resilient simply because they run. In fact, we need to incorporate some strength training to ensure we get the proper adaption for muscular strength, hypertrophy, and muscular endurance to create proper resiliency. This will be necessary up-stream as well…affecting the entire kinetic chain (back and core health).
