Vald Strength and Performance testing at Beyond

Getting the best from your sessions at Beyond Physiotherapy with better outcomes using - Vald Strength Testing!

In the dynamic field of physiotherapy, precision is paramount “if you don't measure it how can you improve it”. Assessing and quantifying muscle strength and functional abilities are crucial for tailoring effective treatment plans and tracking progress. We physios cannot predict how the body is functioning but using our experience and knowledge we create treatment plans to aid your recovery. This is where Vald strength testing emerges as a game-changer in the clinic, we can use our clinical experience alongside objective, real-time measurements to help direct your treatment with specific rehab and strength conditioning or injury prevention plans.

Objective Measurement

Vald strength testing provides objective measurements of muscle strength and performance. This technology was once restricted to research labs and professional sports clubs, with improved access to this technology we are helping our clients get clear on what is needed to help improve performance or injury. Unlike subjective assessments, such as manual muscle testing, Vald uses advanced technology to quantify strength with precision. This data-driven approach helps us at Beyond Physio to accurately diagnose weaknesses, monitor progress, and adjust treatment strategies accordingly.

Tailored Treatment Plans

Each patient’s journey to recovery is unique. Vald strength testing allows your physiotherapists to customize treatment plans based on individual strengths and weaknesses discovered from the testing. By identifying specific areas of improvement, therapists will prescribe targeted exercises and interventions, maximizing efficiency and efficacy using the Vald Exercise Hub which we create a home/ gym based rehab program which you can access through your email..

Real-Time Feedback

Immediate feedback is crucial for both patients and therapists. Vald strength testing offers real-time data on muscle performance during exercises. This instant feedback helps patients understand their progress and adjust their techniques to optimize outcomes. For us, it facilitates timely adjustments to treatment protocols, ensuring continuous improvement.

Motivation and Engagement

Engaging patients in their rehabilitation process is key to achieving successful outcomes. Vald strength testing motivates patients by providing clear, measurable goals. Seeing improvements in strength and function firsthand encourages patients to stay committed to their treatment plans, leading to faster recovery and better long-term results. Using the soft wear and technology we can clearly communicate with you where you are and where you need to be, our goal, is if you can go home and explain to your friend or family member where you are on your recovery plan- meaning you know where you started, where you are, and where you need to be, to have recovery!

Evidence-Based Practice

In an era driven by evidence-based practice, we are using Vald strength testing to strengthen the foundation of our physiotherapy interventions. By incorporating objective data into clinical decision-making, our therapists can justify treatment approaches and demonstrate progress over time. This not only enhances credibility but also fosters trust between you and your treatment plan.

Conclusion

Incorporating Vald strength testing into the Beyond Physiotherapy Clinic improves the way we assess and treat our patients. From precise measurements and tailored treatment plans to real-time feedback and enhanced patient motivation, the benefits are clear. By harnessing technology to optimize outcomes, our physiotherapists can elevate their practice and empower patients on their journey to recovery. If you wish to know more you can book a physio appointment to develop a testing protocol for either athletic performance or to aid your recovery.
