One powerful tool in modern rehabilitation is dynamometry. This equipment measures strength and muscle performance, providing valuable insights into your progress.
Using dynamometry, your physiotherapist can assess your muscle strength quantitatively. This data-driven approach helps tailor your rehabilitation program to your specific needs and identifies muscle imbalances or weaknesses. This then ensures you’re working on the right areas at the right intensity and allows you to address any issues before they become problematic.
Persistent weaknesses can lead to compensatory movements, increasing the risk of further injuries and prolonging recovery. By tracking your strength over time, you and your physio can measure improvements and adjust your exercises accordingly.
Our physiotherapists and exercise physiologists at Physiologic utilise the VALD Dynamo for precision measurements. Don’t hesitate to ask about the benefits of strength testing. Your path to recovery can be clearer and more structured than ever.
