Gait & Running Analysis:
Cases

Speaker: Sheila Banovetz, MS, PT

When: December 17, 2025, 7PM-8PM (Central Time)

This is a short presentation on pattern recognition for various walking and running cases.  For all of the cases being presented, systematic examinations as described in the Lower Quarter Foundation Webinars were performed.  The focus will be to practice movement analysis on various patients' walking or running, while keeping in mind their movement system diagnoses.  

Key components include:

• Review of the critical events during various phases of walking and running
• Guided movement analysis of many patient cases using videos (lateral and posterior views)
• Connecting the dots between systematic examination findings, key findings from walking/running, movement system syndrome, and treatment strategies 

This webinar aims to provide specific case examples to practice gait evaluation and enhance your clinical decision-making using accessible technology and kinesiopathologic principles.

Sheila Banovetz, MS, PT

Sheila has been a physical therapist with a clinical and academic career spanning over four decades. She earned her PT degree from Washington University in St. Louis and began her career in a rehabilitation and amputee clinic before transitioning to outpatient care. Prior to relocating to Stevens Point in 1996, she taught physical therapy at the University of Iowa and has since been involved in lab instruction for Movement System Syndromes courses. While teaching and working as a PT at UW-Stevens Point, Sheila began exploring video analysis in sports biomechanics. Her role evolved further when Stevens Point Orthopedics adopted the Noraxon Movement Analysis System in 2017. Since then, she has led program development in areas such as:
• Gait analysis
• Return-to-sport protocols
• Throwing sport evaluations
With years of experience in motion analysis technologies, Sheila is passionate about simplifying gait assessment through practical tools like smartphone video—and applying MSS principles to improve clinical outcomes. In April 2025, Sheila was invited by the Taiwan Physical Therapy Association to lead a two-day continuing education course on MSS and gait analysis. She is set to return to Taiwan this winter to teach MSS-related topics at National Yang-Ming University's Physical Therapy program.
