Motion Analysis & Sports Performance Laboratory
The Motion Analysis & Sports Performance Laboratory combines cutting-edge technology and decades of experience to help our patients live healthy, active lives. The lab is one of a handful of clinical motion analysis labs in California.
Our services include:
- Walking disorder diagnosis through gait analysis for children and adults with orthopedic and neuromuscular disorders, such as cerebral palsy.
- Recovery and return-to-sport guidance for injured young athletes and athletic performance enhancement to help athletes reduce injury risk and perform at their best.
Evaluations typically start with a physical exam, and then a biomechanical assessment using 3D motion capture video and force plates. This cutting-edge technology helps us analyze how a patient moves, the forces going through their joints, their balance, and muscle activity.
These analyses help guide treatment decisions for patients with orthopedic and neuromuscular disorders, and athletes looking to return to sports after an injury or improve their performance.
