Every day, millions of people visit doctors and therapists seeking relief from musculoskeletal injuries and disorders that cause pain and limit ability to work or perform daily activities.  While diagnosis and treatment for the majority is straightforward and successful, there are tens of thousands who do not respond as expected and whose problems confound healthcare providers, insurers and employers as well as patients.

At the root of this problem is the difficulty in assessing disorders involving activity or movement by observation and standard diagnostic testing.  Patterns of even the simplest functional activities such as walking are, in fact, extremely complex.  To provide a perspective, consider that the human body has some 200 bones connected to 640 skeletal muscles activated and controlled by thousands of motor and sensory nerves all expected to move in intricate three dimensional patterns while maintaining stability under external forces, and responding immediately to feedback from the eyes, ears and touch.

When this process breaks down, and does not respond to standard treatment, clinicians need clear and objective evidence to identify a root-cause.  BioMotion of America utilizes advanced technology to perform Quantitative Motion Analysis - a process that measures and identifies movement, force and timing abnormalities in a wide range of functional activities.  Unlike traditional static imaging that can only show structural deficiencies, BioMotion's 3D Motionprint^SM dynamic imaging shows the complex interaction of muscles, bones and joints in functional deficiencies.

Armed with hard data and detailed computer models, our comprehensive team approach can identify to referring physicians, therapists and other specialists the underlying conditions and causes behind functional problems, document medical necessity for recommended procedures or redirected treatment, and achieve more satisfactory outcomes.
