Dual Force Plates
Force plates have been the gold standard for assessment of muscular strength, power, and velocity since 1976 and perfected by Hawkins Dynamics in 2017. These plates are equipped with sensors that capture the magnitude and direction of forces exerted upon them. This technology uses lab-quality hardware and software and allows us to utilize precision and reliability to accurately measure strength and readiness for athletes to return to sport.
Strength assessments are conducted with long sustained pressure holds on force plates and graphed linearly in real-time.

By analyzing this data, our therapists gain invaluable insights into an individual’s biomechanical profile, aiding in the diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal conditions.
Data is saved and performance is tracked precisely over time allowing us to better track your progress. Incorporating force plates into physical therapy practice represents a paradigm shift towards personalized, data-driven rehabilitation strategies. By harnessing the power of technology, we can unlock new possibilities and optimize your potential.
