Chiropractic Functional Assessment

What makes me different than your average visit to other Newport Beach chiropractic offices is that I apply various tests including functional assessment and joint biomechanics assessments to figure out what is the cause of the pain and discomfort.

One size fits all or, the classic three times aweek for 6 months is not how I treat my patients in Newport Beach. Treatment strategies is based upon individual conditions, needs and how their body respond to care. If appropriate, referral to MD and collaborating with various doctors in Newport Beach and surrounding cities is part the plan.

Assessing joint movements pattern by assessing the muscle strength and weakness is part of our strategies. Patient self reported history is crucial part of the assessments, so I spend about an hour for the first visit to evaluated the situation properly and throughly.

We assess your muscles to determine which muscles are overactive and which ones are underperforming. By addressing the muscles we are able to:

Diagnosing and alleviating the true cause of the pain
Decreases the frequency of chiropractic visits
Breaking and correcting the harmful movement pattern

This tool is used to screen and uses joint ranges of motion to identify movement limitations, Isolated muscle strength testing for neurological assessment and limb asymmetries; in addtion integration component testing includes balance, trunk stability endurances,certain task related testing to assess how joints overall respond to loading, and assessing coordination during seven selected movement patterns that is standard for FMS Screening. As the individula completes each of the movements, the practitioner rates the athlete from zero to three. The sum of these scores is then used to identify the Faulty functional movement of the athlete.
