Runners! As a Doctor of Physical Therapy, I’m passionate about using my professional knowledge to help you run stronger and smarter. What’s that look like? Know that strength training for runners, when guided by physical therapy principles, is your key to resilience. It’s highly individualized to help you prevent injuries, handle the demands of running, and boost your performance—focusing on functional strength, not just muscle size, for true running efficiency.
You can also unlock a better run with Gait Analysis. This specialized assessment of your running mechanics reveals inefficiencies and imbalances. With experienced guidance, addressing these leads to a smoother, safer, and more efficient stride. No matter your level—from beginner to Boston-bound—I offer coaching services to help you reach your goals. Contact me to learn how we can work together!

“I would rate the Perfect Stride Physical Therapy team higher than 5 stars if I could. As a professional runner that struggled with injuries for about 3 years, I can honestly say that meeting Vikash and the Perfect Stride team has been a game changer in my career. Now that I am running healthy with their help, I still have weekly check-ups to make sure I am doing the proper rehab...and not just rehab”
