Active Health Physiotherapists specialise in full muscle balance assessments. A muscle balance assessment aims to identify areas of tightness or weakness which may predispose injury or impair performance. At the completion of a muscle balance assessment, a rehabilitation plan is developed to address any issues and a follow up appointment made to monitor progress.

Real Time Ultrasound allows visual feedback of muscle size and activation patterns. Active Health Physiotherapy staff have been trained in the use of this type of ultrasound assisted biofeedback. This is the future of rehabilitation and is very specialised. Real Time Ultrasound enhances patient understanding and gives you the ability to actually see how to activate certain muscle groups.
