Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester introduces running clinic with physical therapist

CARTHAGE, Ill. — Memorial Medical Clinic Colchester, 110 Market, is offering a running clinic led by Katie Ruebush, a physical therapist and experienced runner.

This specialized clinic is designed for runners of all levels. With years of experience in physical therapy and a passion for working with the running community, Ruebush will provide gait and running analysis, injury prevention strategies and performance training tailored to individual needs. This clinic is ideal for:

• Runners experiencing pain or discomfort while training.
• Athletes recovering from injury or surgery.
• People wanting to improve their running form and efficiency.
• Children, youth, and young adults ages 12 and up participating in school athletics.

This clinic functions like traditional physical therapy for people dealing with pain or injury — requiring a provider’s order and billed through insurance. For runners looking to fine-tune mechanics and performance without medical concerns, wellness assessments are available at a cash rate: initial running assessment (60 minutes): $99. Follow-up sessions (30 minutes): $49.

In a press release, Ruebush said, “I’m passionate about helping runners stay healthy, optimize movement and reach their personal goals — whether that’s running pain-free, improving performance or preventing injuries before they happen.”
