Biomechanical Assessment

It may be that you suffer from a recurring injury. This could well be down to your aligment, bone structure or posture - which can alter your bodies bio-mechanics. Through a process of in-depth analysis we can ascertain if these factors are the cause of an injury. Thie means the we can then recommend a program that doesnt simply make you better until the next time it happens, but is a permanent prevention from the program.

Assessing a patients alignment and movement often reveals the true cause of an injury. Individuals are mechanically assessed to see whether abnormal joint function and bone structure contributes to a pattern that makes you more prone to injury. Factors such as spinal symmetry, limb length and hip, knee and foot function are carefully analysed. As assessment technique called Dynamic Movement Screening will be used in combination with sophisticated gait analysis and hands on muscle length testing.

The information gathered will help your physiotherapist decide on your main problems and formulate a tailored treatment.
