Performance Assessments

All new clients must complete an initial assessment before scheduling any 1-on-1 training sessions.

Functional Movement Assessment

The Functional Movement Assessment is a comprehensive, two-hour session that evaluates movement patterns, posture, and muscle function to identify limitations that may contribute to pain, reduced performance, or increased injury risk. Through individualized movement analysis and hands-on coaching, clients learn corrective exercises to improve strength, stability, mobility, and motor control while better understanding how their bodies move.

This assessment is ideal for individuals experiencing pain or stiffness, returning from injury, beginning a fitness program, or looking to establish a strong foundation for long-term health, movement efficiency, and physical performance.

Lower Back Assessment

The Comprehensive Lower Back Assessment is an in-depth, three-hour evaluation designed to identify the mechanical factors underlying lower back pain and movement limitations. Using a research-informed approach based on Dr. Stuart McGill’s methodology, we assess your pain history, posture, movement patterns, spinal mechanics, and tolerance to specific movements and positions to identify pain triggers and develop strategies to reduce symptoms. Through individualized testing and hands-on coaching, clients learn spine-sparing movement techniques, appropriate exercises, and strategies to improve spinal stability, build resilience, and restore function.

This assessment is ideal for individuals experiencing persistent or recurring lower back pain, disc-related symptoms, sciatica, or limitations that interfere with daily activities, exercise, and athletic performance.

Performance Assessment

Athletic performance depends on efficiency, biomechanics, and progressive development. The Performance Assessment provides a comprehensive, data-driven evaluation of movement, mobility, strength, force production, and sport-specific demands. Using a combination of movement analysis and force plate testing, we evaluate how an athlete produces, absorbs, and transfers force while identifying mechanical inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement.

Athletes leave with a clearer understanding of their physical strengths and limitations, along with actionable strategies to improve performance, build resilience, reduce injury risk, and support long-term development.
