Computer-AidedMovement Analysis with Revolutionary Wearable Sensor Technology can answer these and other questions:
- Is your joint alignment working for you or against you as you run?
- Is your stance time longer on one side?
- What’s the relationship of the knee to the ankle? Collapsing in? Deviating out?
Your Exam
This is a specialty biomechanics assessment, performed in the clinic or out in the real world on any surface – you choose.
- • Sensors attach to your skin with adhesive.
- • You’ll be videotaped while you perform some simple movements, including running.
- The exam will take up to thirty minutes.
- You’ll walk away with a better understanding of how your body functions during running.
