Biodex allows patients to isokinetically test and train with the isolated joints and surrounding musculature in biomechanically correct positions and at speeds that replicate function.
All the parameters (including acceleration and deceleration) that define muscle functional performance can be measured.
- Specialized strengthening for knees and shoulders
- Safe and effective strengthening after injury or surgery
- Determines readiness to return to sport or job
- Provides therapist with an objective report including comparison of the strength compared to the non-injured side
- Decrease joint effusion.
- Increase range of motion.
- Improve healing of the articular cartilage and soft tissues.
- Barrie Sports Medicine - south end location only
Biodex testing and rehabilitation sessions are billed through physiotherapy which are covered by private extended health care plans (physician referral may be required) and through motor vehicle insurance and worker’s compensation (prior approval required). Download Printable PDF
