What to Expect at Your Assessment?
During your Movement Pattern Assessment at PeakPhysio, your physiotherapist will:
1. Take a detailed history and understand your movement goals
2. Observe and analyse a range of functional movements (e.g. squatting, walking, lifting)
3. Test flexibility, stability, strength, and joint range of motion
4. Identify compensatory or restricted patterns
5. Create a personalised corrective program based on your results
What Is Movement Pattern Assessment?
Movement pattern assessments are designed to evaluate how your body moves during everyday tasks and physical activity. Our physiotherapists observe your posture, flexibility, coordination, strength, and biomechanics to identify dysfunctional movement habits or compensations that could lead to pain, imbalance, or injury.
At PeakPhysio, this service is ideal for:
● Athletes looking to optimise technique
● Individuals recovering from injury
● People experiencing pain with movement
● Those starting or returning to exercise
● Workers with repetitive movement or lifting demands
Why Movement Patterns Matter?
Your body is designed to move in specific ways. Over time, due to injury, poor posture, muscle imbalances, or inactivity, your movement patterns can become inefficient or harmful.
This often leads to:
● Chronic pain or discomfort
● Muscle overuse and fatigue
● Reduced performance in sport or exercise
● Recurrent injuries
● Poor posture and limited mobility
By addressing these movement dysfunctions early, we help you build a stronger, more resilient body - capable of performing safely and efficiently.
