From Biomechanics to Psychosocial: Redefining Movement Assessments 🏋️‍♂️

As a general rule, the majority of med pros and fit pros are trained with a biomechanical lens of looking at someone moving and utilizing more of a linear mathematical model to identify is the person moving well or not. But we're really not taking into account, at least in my opinion, we're not taking into account the person attached to the mechanics that might be fearful of a movement, that might have some anxiety of performing the movement due to a potential for future injury. So we're really taking the psychosocial approach, identifying methods of assessing someone's fear, year of moving, and then applying that into the intervention. So we put someone in a safe environment to be able to accomplish it.
