The 2-Part In-Depth Assessment
A standard 15-minute appointment isn't enough to understand complex movement patterns or chronic injuries. Our assessment is completed over two separate days to uncover the contributing factors behind your limitations and build a precise roadmap for your recovery.
Why Two Separate Days?
Most healthcare visits are understandably rushed. You explain your symptoms, receive a quick examination, and get a standard treatment plan. Providers in these settings do their best with the time they have — but if you are dealing with a recurring injury or looking to optimize performance, a quick fix isn't designed to go deep enough.
At Health Sciences Lab, we do not look at an area in isolation. We consider the entire body as a system and assess movement and patterns that have developed over time leading to compensations.
Our 2-Part Initial Assessment, completed over two separate days, gives us the time required to perform a comprehensive evaluation, test and retest movement mechanics, provide hands-on treatment, and build a fully customized rehabilitation strategy without cutting corners.
Detailed Investigation
Time to thoroughly review your injury history, training demands, and goals.
System-Wide Assessment
Evaluating how your entire body moves, not just the site of pain.
Precise Protocol Design
Testing and retesting to ensure we prescribe the exact right interventions.
Long-Term Resilience
Addressing compensations so your body becomes more efficient and built to perform.
What Happens During Your Assessment
Clinical Interview & History
We start by discussing your current issue, injury history, training volume, and specific performance goals. Understanding your lifestyle and demands is critical to building an effective plan.
Functional Movement Screening (FMS & SFMA)
We assess your global movement patterns to identify asymmetries, mobility restrictions, and motor control issues that may be contributing to your symptoms or limiting your performance.
Orthopedic & Neurological Testing
Specific clinical tests to accurately diagnose the injured tissue, rule out serious pathology, and understand the structural limitations.
Biomechanical & Load Testing
Evaluating how you move under load or during sport-specific tasks (like running or lifting) to see how your body handles stress and where compensations occur.
Initial Treatment & Intervention
Applying targeted hands-on care (like adjustments or Active Release Techniques) and immediately retesting movement to confirm we are on the right track.
Customized Rehabilitation Strategy
Building and coaching you through your specific exercise program, ensuring proper technique, and outlining the exact roadmap for your recovery.
