Just as you visit the dentist for regular checkups, why not consider the same approach with your physical therapist? Opt for a functional movement assessment that guides you through a series of diverse movements, engaging various muscles and joints in different patterns. This evaluation offers insights into your body's mobility, highlighting areas of optimal movement and those that could benefit from enhancement.
By incorporating this assessment periodically, I can continuously monitor your functional abilities, ensuring you remain aware of your current capacity. This allows us to focus on areas that require attention and improvement, effectively enabling you to consistently perform at your highest level. Just like preventive dental checkups, routine functional movement assessments play a pivotal role in maintaining your overall well-being and performance.
What Goes Into The Assessment?
What Goes Into The Assessment?
Functional movement assessments involve a range of carefully chosen movements, like bridges, single leg stands, and rotations, that challenge your muscles, nerves, and joints in different ways. This helps us understand two important things. First, can you move well enough for what you want to do? Second, it reveals any weak spots or restrictions you might not notice. These hidden issues can lead to chronic injuries over time. Think of it like your body finding a detour around a roadblock – it works for a while, but eventually, the detour causes problems.
These assessments are like a crystal ball, giving us a glimpse into your body's future. By finding and addressing these hidden problems now, we prevent them from getting worse. It's like fixing a small leak before it becomes a flood. We use this insight to strengthen and support your body, making sure you can keep doing what you love without pain or bigger issues down the road. It's a proactive approach that keeps your body in harmony, avoiding the need for more serious solutions like surgery.
