Assessment

Assessments
Performed By Aspire PT
& Wellness

Based on the experience and knowledge of Dr. Stacy King, Aspire PT & Wellness believes in a thorough evaluation and assessment in order to focus on the specific needs of each patient. The assessment includes more than a discussion of the injury that brings you to the office.

Below is a list of some of the special assessments that you may encounter during your Physical Therapy evaluation:

  • Postural Assessment looks at the overall alignment of a person to evaluate how the body moves and functions.
  • Gait Assessment indicates a person’s stability and balance.
  • Strength Testing can reveal information about weakness or imbalance.
  • Range of Motion/Flexibility Testing measures the degree of movement at a joint.
  • FMS (Functional Movement Screen) can help diagnose problems and demonstrate areas for improved movement.
  • SFMA (Selective Functional Movement Assessment) helps to determine patterns of movement associated with musculoskeletal pain.
  • Sports Injury Testing measures factors relating to an athlete’s strength, coordination and body alignment.
  • Health Coaching may offer keys to a healthier life.

Individualized
attention

We do not lump patients into any one category. Rather, we take a wholistic approach to assessing what is the cause of your pain. Once the source is identified, then a complete treatment regime can be initiated.
