IDENTIFYING THE ROOT CAUSE OF YOUR PROBLEM

Movement Edge utilizes a number of sports science tools to identify the cause of pain or performance gaps. We employ state of the art technology with highly trained staff to ensure the best outcomes for you.

At Movement Edge, services begin with a “Test” or assessment. Whether you are preparing to compete in the
Olympics or have been suffering from back pain, we utilize a series of tests to identify the “root” cause of any problem. We then provide a targeted, individual plan that your certified Movement Edge practitioner will execute with care and precision.

This series of tests is designed for those seeking to maximize athletic performance and to reduce the risk of injury. High Performance Testing integrates Optojump Performance analytics with the Fusionetics platform of Movement Efficiency and Range of Motion.

This series of is designed for those primarily seeking to alleviate pain improve function and improve their quality of life while reducing the risk of injury. Standard Testing is comprised of Movement Efficiency testing and Range of Motion Testing.

INDIVIDUAL’S TEST RESULTS ARE USED TO DEVELOP TARGETED BODYWORKS AND TRAINING PROGRAMS THAT ADDRESS: PERFORMANCE, INJURY PREVENTION, PAIN MANAGEMENT AND RECONDITIONING

Optojump Testing:
The High Performance test begins with the Optojump system. We utilize this highly sensitive high tech system to evaluate how your body is functioning through a series of performance assessments including marching, vertical jump, single leg hops and side to side hops. We measure distance speed and power with an accuracy of 1/1000 of a second.

Movement Efficiency:
Using the patent-pending Fusionetics technology we do a 60-point inspection of your body in motion to assess movement efficiency during 7 different movements. This test evaluates mobility, stability and functional control to understand current performance and injury risk status. This same test is being utilized across professional and college sports to create baselines for injury prevention and training programs for athletes in all sports. You are given a 0-100 score which allows you and your practitioner to develop a game plan for objective improvement.

Range of Motion:
After your Movement Efficiency Test, our staff will also perform a Range of Motion Test. As part of the Movement Efficiency Test, we identify key joints for further evaluation. We utilize a Range of Motion test to further target flexibility and mobility limitations which are often the root cause of pain and performance issues. Once we have the results of your tests our practitioners work with our software applications to create a targeted program to meet your individual needs.
