Functional Movement Screening

Understand how you move so we can better understand how to help you move.

Functional Movement Screening uses targeted movement assessments to identify mobility limitations, asymmetries, and movement patterns that may contribute to pain, injury, or reduced performance.

See the movement. Find the limitation. Build a better plan.

Look Beyond Where It Hurts

What Is Functional Movement Screening?

Pain doesn't always originate from the area where you feel it. The way you move can influence how your muscles, joints, and tissues handle everyday activities, exercise, and sport.

A Functional Movement Screening gives Andrew an opportunity to observe how your body moves as a whole and identify areas that may need additional attention.

We don't just want to know where you hurt. We want to understand how you move.
