Injury Prevention Screening
The FMS and Y balance test provide us with an opportunity to assess functional movement patterns, flexibility, strength and balance in an objective manner. They can be beneficial in identifying movement deficiencies, potential injury risks and areas for improvement in physical performance.
The data gathered from the FMS and Y balance test can be inputted to an algorithm in order to calculate injury risk. These metrics are compared against a large database of norms and injury predictors to generate a personalized risk score.
This algorithm categorizes individuals into risk groups (low, moderate, high) and provides actionable recommendations. For example, an athlete with a high-risk score may be advised to focus on specific corrective exercises or additional assessments before returning to their sport.
This is available individually or can be booked for team screening in the offseason.
