Movement analysis

Movement Analysis in Denver, Colorado

At UNITE.rehab.perform Physical Therapy and Sports Performance, we believe this is THE most important step in beginning our journey together. So important, that we utilize it in every one of our initial evaluations — for both physical therapy and performance training. This gives your sports physical therapist a thorough understanding of how you are moving and the root cause of your injury.

 

The two systems we use are:

Functional Movement Screen (FMS)

This thorough but quick screen allows your performance physical therapist to see how you are moving as an athlete. The FMS has been shown to identify movement faults and side-versus-side discrepancies that, if addressed, can stop injuries before they happen. If you are already dealing with an injury, the FMS is helpful to identify what movements are causing pain.

Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA)

This screen is performed only by trained medical professionals. The SFMA is a “movement based diagnostic system which systematically finds the cause of pain – not just the source – by logically breaking down dysfunctional movement patterns in a structured, repeatable assessment.”
