ForceDecks allows us to track your force production, fatigue under repeated efforts, balance and side to side differences
NordBord specifically assesses the strength and force production of your hamstring muscles. If you have had a hamstring graft used for your ACL reconstruction, this will help track the difference between your non operated side and the side that has had the graft taken. HumanTrak provides assessment on your range of motion and quality of movement as well as your side to side differences. This is achieved using a 3D camera and motion capture system. ForceFrame is able to be used for a range of tests, for ACL rehab knee extension and flexion, and hip strength are key measures to track. |
