Functional Movement Study (FMS)

At Optimus Injury Treatment Center, we offer comprehensive Functional Movement Studies (FMS) to assess and enhance your body’s movement patterns. FMS is a cutting-edge evaluation system used to identify movement inefficiencies and potential risk factors for injuries. Our FMS service involves a series of simple yet effective tests designed to evaluate your stability, mobility, and functional strength.

What to Expect:

  1. Initial Assessment: Dr. Robert Buckley, D.C., DACRB, will guide you through a series of movements, including squats, lunges, and reaches, to identify any limitations or imbalances.
  2. Detailed Analysis: Using advanced techniques, we analyze the results to pinpoint areas that need improvement, whether it’s flexibility, strength, or coordination.
  3. Customized Plan: Based on your FMS results, we create a personalized plan tailored to your specific needs. This may include targeted exercises, chiropractic adjustments, and corrective strategies to enhance your overall movement and prevent injuries.
  4. Follow-Up Sessions: Regular follow-ups ensure you are progressing and adapting the plan as needed, helping you achieve optimal movement efficiency and performance. 

Why FMS Matters: 

We understand that over 90% of all back pain is functional in nature. Traditional structural evaluations, such as MRIs, CT scans, and x-rays, do not always demonstrate functional problems. FMS helps us identify and address these functional issues to provide you with more effective and long-lasting relief. Additionally, FMS gives Dr. Robert Buckley, D.C.,DACRB, another objective way of documenting the severity of the injury and the progression of your recovery. 

Benefits of FMS:

  • Improved mobility and flexibility
  • Enhanced athletic performance
  • Reduced risk of injury
  • Better posture and balance
  • Customized corrective exercise plans
