Cutting-Edge Technology
Motion Analysis
Discover how you move like never before at the Meyer Institute of Sport's Motion Analysis and Performance Lab. Our advanced Qualisys technology, used by top biomechanics research labs and professional athletes, provides precise 3D movement data. We analyze your joint coordination and force generation during functional tasks, uncovering areas for improvement.
With our technology we are able to assess movements such as high-speed running, cutting, jumping and landing with the highest level of accuracy.
3D Motion Capture
With our high-speed video and infrared motion capture cameras, coupled with force plates and wearable sensors, we go beyond traditional assessments. The Qualisys system records split-second movements, forces acting on each leg, and subject-specific models, giving you detailed data about your joint movement and loading.
Injury Recovery and Return-To-Sport Evaluation
Safeguarding Your Athletic Journey
Following various injuries or surgical procedures, unresolved movement impairments can put athletes at higher risk. Our comprehensive biomechanical analysis during recovery provides crucial insights into your progress. From early rehabilitation to sport-specific tasks, we evaluate your mechanics and tailor targeted training to ensure a successful return to high-level activities. Whether you're healing from ACL reconstruction or another injury, we'll help you reach your athletic potential safely and effectively.
Early Recovery Biomechanical Assessment
Our early recovery assessment includes a careful evaluation of how you walk, squat, and perform single-limb tasks. By understanding how you use your lower body and core, we make sure your rehabilitation stays on the right path.
An Early Recovery Assessment includes a evaluation of gait, squatting and single limb squatting to determine if individuals are recovering their ability to load their knee extensors in functional tasks and maintaining good core control. The assessment also includes isometric strength measures of quadriceps and hamstrings. This assessment is recommended for individuals 3-4 months from surgery prior to the initiation of running.
Return-To-Sport Biomechanical Assessment
Before returning to your favorite sport, let our biomechanical assessment guide you. We analyze your lower extremity function during jumping and agility tasks. By identifying any remaining movement deficits, we help you fine-tune your sport-specific training for a safe and successful comeback.
Biomechanical assessment of single and double limb landing and jumping and agility tasks including cutting and high-speed deceleration will quantify how well your knee functions during these tasks and identify remaining movement impairments that need to be addressed prior to returning to sport.
This information is most valuable as you progress to sport specific training to allow for targeted training individualized for your remaining deficits.
