Testing with a purpose.
VALD ForceDecks and DynaMo can add objective measures to a physical assessment. We use relevant results alongside your history, goals and clinical findings, then explain what they mean in practical terms.
WHO IT MAY HELP
More context for your next step.
Testing may be useful when you want a clearer picture of selected physical qualities or a way to compare your own results over time.
- Athletes returning to training after an injury
- Golfers exploring the physical demands of their game
- Clients working on strength, balance or movement capacity
- Coaches or clinicians seeking a shared, relevant measurement
The tests chosen depend on the question we are trying to answer. A number on its own does not diagnose a condition or determine readiness to return to sport.
THE PROCESS
From question to useful information.
01
Define the goal
We discuss your activity, symptoms, relevant history and what you hope the assessment will clarify.
02
Select relevant tests
ForceDecks measure how force is produced during selected tasks. DynaMo can measure strength and movement in appropriate positions.
03
Interpret and act
We explain the results in context and discuss whether they change your rehabilitation or performance priorities. Repeat testing may be considered when useful.
CLINICAL CONTEXT
The result is part of the picture.
We look for information that supports a useful decision, rather than collecting scores for their own sake.
The assessment can be discussed as part of physiotherapy or golf performance care. Contact us before booking to agree which tests are suitable and available, the format, any reporting needs and the fee.
