Precise and Quantifiable Measurement of Muscle Strength, Identify Areas of Weakness, Facilitate Safe and Effective Rehabilitation: Isokinetic Dynamometry.
Isokinetic testing offers a precise and quantifiable measurement of muscle strength surrounding key joints in the body. It involves using specialized equipment – Biodex Isokinetic Dynamometry – that controls the speed of joint movement while measuring the force exerted by muscles. This assessment technique allows for a comparison with the opposite or healthy limb. A comparison to normative values is also possible, providing valuable information for evaluation purposes.
The benefits of our assessments include:
x Identifying particular areas of weakness in terms of strength that require improvement
x Guiding the design of data-driven exercise programmes
x Facilitating a safe and effective rehabilitation process and return to optimal levels of functionality
x Monitoring the progress and effectiveness of exercise interventions
Our advanced services offer additional analysis, graphical visualisations, and where possible comparisons against elite normative data compared to our basic services
