INJURY RISK ASSESSMENT (FMS)

Your physical therapist uses Functional Movement Screening (FMS) to observe seven fundamental movement patterns, allowing the identification and correction of abnormal movement patterns, compensatory movements, and side-to-side movement differences that may lead to injury. Correcting these movements reduces injury risk and is critical for the long-term durability of an athlete or active individual. FMS is recognized and used by both professional and collegiate sports teams including teams in the NFL, NBA, and NHL.
