Movement Analysis

Pain is your body’s alarm—but it shows up after movement breaks down.
Our whole-body movement analysis identifies the root cause before it becomes pain, so you heal faster, stay better longer, and move the way your body was designed to.

Movement analysis is a part of every single treatment at Primal Physical Therapy, because treating this way for the last 25+ years has given our patients undeniable results that are repeatable. Whether you’re coming for an acute or chronic injury or pain, our expert physical therapists will combine the detailed, whole body movement assessment with a treatment plan that addresses your unique issues and incorporates specific therapeutic exercises to get you back to living the life you imagine.

Comprehensive movement analysis to identify and fix the source of physical pain.

What is Movement Analysis?

Movement analysis lets your movement tell your body’s story. It will pick up on tight, weak, or limited areas of your body that you might not even know are limited. Oftentimes, these areas create compensations in your daily movement without you even realizing it, until eventually these compensations lead to pain, breakdown and injury.

The expert movement analysis allows us to not only treat the painful or injured area, but we address the underlying root causes. This helps us to more quickly resolve your injury, AND give you a game plan so you can prevent it from returning.

How Can Movement Analysis Help Me?

Movement analysis is a critical piece of physical therapy and injury rehabilitation in many ways, including : athletic performance, injury prevention, injury rehabilitation, and recovery. Among the primary reasons for the importance of movement analysis include the following:

Athletic Performance

If you’re an athlete, movement analysis is critical to improving performance. Efficiency in the skills and attributes needed for each specific sport can be assessed and addressed through movement analysis. Working on areas that are flagged during a movement evaluation improve everything from maximizing speed, power, and agility in an athlete’s performance.

Moreover, athletes may go through movement analysis if they notice that their performance or speed is not advancing as quickly as they would want. In these situations, movement analysis can assist in determining whether a minute movement that cannot be seen with the human eye is impeding development.

Injury Rehabilitation

When rehabilitating an injury, there are often areas that are painful and might even have inflammation. But those areas are often an accumulation of breakdown from compensations that occurred long before the injury. We use movement to identify these compensations and address underlying root causes of injury to get you better faster and keep you better longer.

Preventing Injury

Movement analysis is proven to help prevent injury by addressing limitations that accumulate from our daily routines – whether those routines are from sitting at a desk all day or specializing in a single sport or activity. We use the movement to create a plan that balances your body’s muscles, tendons, bones, and joints so you can move better with less breakdown.

Recovery

After a strenuous activity like a big competition or event that was physically taxing Movement Analysis helps us diagnose what areas might need special attention as you recover.
