Functional Movement Screen ($70) Assessment

Functional movement is your body’s ability to move using multiple muscle groups without pain or disfunction. Good functional movement assists us in being able to carry out the things we want to do in day to day life, commonly called activities of daily living.

Functional Movement Screen

The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is a screening tool used to evaluate seven fundamental movement patterns in individuals with no current pain complaint or musculoskeletal injury. The FMS is not intended to diagnose orthopedic problems but rather to demonstrate opportunities for improved movement in individuals.

The seven Functional Movement Screen patterns

1. Deep Squat.
2. Hurdle Step.
3. Inline Lunge.
4. Shoulder Mobility.
5. Active Straight Leg Raise.
6. The Trunk Stability Push-Up.
7. Rotary Stability.

Why do we test it?

• A consistent and reliable testing method.
• Easily identifies movement limitations and dysfunction.
• Improves efficiency, durability, and performance.
• Provides an enhanced foundation for exercise and performance programming.
