Athletic Performance

athletic performanceThe Interconnected Mechanobiology (I-MECH) approach may be helpful in dramatically improving athletic performance. This is due to the fact that it significantly improves biomechanics.

Biomechanics is defined as : “the study of the living body, especially of the forces exerted by muscles and gravity on the skeletal structure”

Poor biomechanical function often goes undetected, and can remain an obstacle to achieving athletic success.  Athletes often don’t reach their potential because they are held back by poor biomechanics. Coaches are often less successful teaching necessary skills when athletes have poor biomechanics. In addition poor biomechanics can result in injuries and inefficient use of energy.

I-MEC is an approach that can dramatically improve your biomechanics.  This is achieved through methods of treatment which remove imbalance and restrictions in your body that occur from the stress and strain of sports and other activities.

Footwear is also critical.  The foot, as your foundation, dramatically affects the biomechanics of your entire structure. Custom orthotics can dramatically improve performance, as they precisely “tune” your body alignment for optimal biomechanical function.

Biomechanical evaluation will identify problems that can be holding you back.  Better biomechanics equals better performance and fewer injuries.
