Injury Prevention

Functional movement screening is a ranking and grading system that documents movement patterns that are key to normal function. As part of your initial evaluation, FMS is utilized to quickly identify dangerous movement patterns so that they can be addressed. This ultimately works towards turning your weaknesses into strengths.

Functional movement screening is performed by a licensed physical therapist who is trained in FMS. Your therapist will take you through the screen and design specific, corrective exercises to reduce your risk for injury. The goal is essentially to identify and eliminate your weakest link in order to prevent injury and to optimize your performance.
