Assessment

A detailed assessment is carried out by our experienced consultants on your first visit.  This will involve taking a history of your injury, understanding your lifestyle and determining what you want to achieve.  We assess your posture, joint range of motion, muscle function, strength, and movement patterns.  This allows us to gain a holistic view of your current situation and a baseline measure of your current ability. 

If fitness testing is required we carry this out using a variety of methods from the simple to the sophisticated in our lab, dependent on your needs.

Photos and video clips of your posture and movement are typically taken in order to help make more accurate measurements and assessment of body alignment.  You get a chance to view these at the end of the assessment so you can see for yourself what we see.  We will also use this visual record to compare your progress in the future as you restore balance to your muscles and joints. 

You will need to wear appropriate clothing and footwear.  Males should wear shorts, t-shirt and exercise shoes.  Women should wear shorts or tighter fitting sports pants, a supportive bra or crop top, t-shirt or top and shoes.  Feel free to wear warmer clothing on top of this.    

Allow 1 ½ to 2 hours for the assessment.  Occasionally it can take longer if the problem is complex.
