What Runners Say About Training With OPAL

Real stories from runners who got past the injury cycle and back to doing what they love.

OPAL is all about efficient movement, whether it's for every day activities or working out at the gym. The PTs are highly knowledgeable and very personable. They care about YOU. Dr. Magda has been working on my meniscus and it's amazing what she does to alleviate pain at the moment! But she doesn't stop there. She checks in with you following your appointment to see how you are doing (and if you are doing your exercises!). Her interest is getting you back to doing what you enjoy. If you are looking for expert physical therapists, OPAL is the place to go. Dr. Magda is the one to see.

I can't overstate how valuable and helpful working with Dr. Riggins has been for my overall fitness during this past year. I first sought her services during my training cycle for a marathon I ran in February, thanks in great part to her insights and the strength and mobility program she designed specifically to help me not only get to the start line healthy, but also perform my best that day as well as going forward. If you are into ANY sort of fitness activities at all, whether it is running, cycling, swimming, etc, I highly recommend consulting with her and letting her design a program that is tailored to you, so that you can be at your absolute best now and in the future. You won't regret it!

I spent the last three years with shoulder pain. I tried every manner of treatment from injections to physical therapy to lasers to sound waves and on. Even spent hours in 3 different orthopedics' offices who simply wanted to do surgery to "figure out" what my issue was. Luckily, social media put a video of Opal Movement on my feed and I watched. So I made an appointment, drove 3 hours to meet Dr.'s Morgan and Magda in Austin. It was the first time I felt like a Dr was actually listening to me and 100% focused on trying to solve my problem. After an hour of me explaining my physical history, they had a theory as to the source of my pain: shoulder mechanics. Then they laid out steps I could take to heal, move better, and get back to an active lifestyle. I kid you not, Reviewers, I felt 80% better in less than 72 hours. I drove back to Austin the next week and signed up for their program and haven't looked back since. Today, three months later, I am back in the gym lifting weights, ballroom dancing with my wife, and pain free. Opal Movement Therapy should be your first stop/step when it comes to physical conundrums. They will get you back on the healthy path faster than you can read this. Thank you, Dr. Magda and Dr. Morgan. Heroes!

Frequently Asked Questions

Learn how running PT at OPAL works and what to expect.

Do you take insurance?

We're cash-based and out-of-network. We provide itemized receipts you can submit to your insurance for potential out-of-network reimbursement. We also accept HSA/FSA and offer payment plans.

What kinds of runners do you work with?

We work with road runners, trail runners, beginner runners building their first base, and experienced runners preparing for races. Whether you're dealing with a recurring injury or want to train smarter and prevent one, we can build a plan around your mileage goals and running style.

How is running PT different from regular PT?

Running PT at OPAL is built around your mechanics, your mileage, and your goals — not just where it hurts. We assess your running form, identify what's loading the injured tissue, and integrate return-to-running milestones so you come back with confidence, not guesswork.

Do I need a doctor's referral to start?

No referral needed. Texas allows direct access to physical therapy, so you can book a phone consult directly. We'll confirm whether our approach is the right fit and build a clear plan before your first session.

Can you help me if I'm not injured but want to run more without breaking down?

Yes. Many runners come to us proactively — to improve their form, build load capacity, or prepare for a race distance they've never attempted. A running assessment and movement screen can identify areas to address before they become injuries.
