Physio Tip of the week
You may be squatting through one leg right now and have no idea.🏋️
Your squat may look even… ❌ But the data from the VALD ForceDecks could tell a different story.
This can affect your loading during gym training and during injury rehab.
That weakness you can’t feel could be the one that re-injures you.
One leg may be doing more work than you think.
You often cannot feel a 15% asymmetry. ✅The ForceDecks can.
This matter’s after any injury, and is especially important during rehab, particularly after an ACL Reconstruction.
If you need us our team are happy to help with:
👉Post-op Rehab
👉 Injury assessment and management
👉 Gym & Sport Screening Assessments
Helping Rehab your Injuries & Get Pain Free
