The Best Post-Run Recovery Routine for Runners with Knee Problems

Season 1 Episode 51 of Running to the Castle Podcast w/ Dr. Ali Marty

In this episode of Running to the Castle I had the honor of being interviewed by Shayla Wesch on The Average Runner Podcast.

In this episode I had the opportunity to talk about the best post-run recovery routine for the average runner with knee problems like knee arthritis or Runner’s knee. I went in depth into a solid cool down, how to time your stretching routine and more. 

I talked about how, as a physical therapist, I go about determining what kind of injury my client has even when we’re doing an online video consult and I’m not in-person with my runner and determining the difference between 2 similar diagnoses like knee arthritis and Runner’s Knee.

In the beginning of the episode we talk about why I left the physical therapy clinic, why 3x/week for 6-12 weeks of physical therapy doesn’t work for my running clients and how I went from a physical therapy student to now 12 years later seeing exclusively runDisney runners.

Hi! I’m Ali. I’ve been in the health and wellness space since graduating with a Doctor of Physical Therapy degree in 2012. I worked in the typical outpatient clinic with active men and women with orthopedic injuries (shin splints, Achilles tendonitis, muscle and ligament tears, knee pain, IT Band pain, plantar fasciitis, and hip and knee arthritis until 2018 at which point I started Mobile Physical Therapy in Las Vegas, Nevada. Over the past few years I’ve transitioned to helping women running runDisney races after they’ve had an injury and they want to finish strong and enjoy the rest of their runcation.
