Biokinetic Assessment
This is done at the initial consultation with a potential patient, and includes:
- Medical history
- Pain assessment
- Body composition
- Postural assessment
- Palpation
- Functional movement tests in order to assess Biomechanics
- Neural tests
- Proprioception
- Range of motion /flexibility tests
- Muscle strength tests
- Goal setting and feedback
The information gathered from the assessment is then used to put together a scientifically based and specific exercise programme to suit the patient’s needs.
