Clinical biomechanics

We Measure What Health Makes Possible.

For clinicians, that means seeing function. Moviq Health shows how a patient moves, how function changes through recovery, and whether they are regaining the independence to live everyday life.

See function. Understand what recovery makes possible.

01 · The lab

Where function
becomes measurable.

We bring the rigor of a biomechanics lab into healthcare. Patients move through standardized protocols while we capture movement, force, and balance under controlled conditions. Each result is compared with healthy reference values and can be repeated over time, giving clinicians objective and longitudinal data to understand function and track change.

Inside the Moviq Health lab
  • Movement

    Infrared cameras capture movement and timing as the patient walks, revealing how each stride is produced.

  • Loading

    Bilateral force plates measure how each leg loads the ground throughout movement, making differences between sides visible.

  • Stability

    Balance plate tracks how the body controls its center of pressure while standing under different conditions.

02 · What we measure

From performance
to patient care.

Elite sport uses movement data to understand performance. Healthcare can use the same precision to understand recovery, quantify function, and see whether a patient is actually improving.

How You Walk

Athletes use detailed walking and running data to understand how efficiently they move and refine performance.

Clinicians can see how a patient is walking after surgery, injury, or stroke, then measure whether function is returning over time.

How You Load

Athletes are tested for differences between limbs and changes in how they produce force to guide training and return to competition.

Clinicians can see how much each leg contributes during movement, revealing differences that may remain even when everyday movement looks normal.

How You Stay Steady

Athletes establish a baseline and compare how steady they are over time to understand changes following injury or demanding training.

Clinicians can measure how steady a patient is while standing and follow whether control is improving throughout rehabilitation.

03 · The report

A lab report
for how patients move.

Every study comes back the way lab work does: a short clinical summary written by a Doctor of Physical Therapy, then each result against its reference, flagged when it falls outside, and set beside the last study.

Clinical summary

01 · Overview of function

Walking speed and step timing are within reference, and the patient walks independently. Lower-limb force production is the limiting factor, and is not yet at a level that supports higher-demand activity: stairs at pace, rising from a low chair, uneven ground.

02 · Key findings

Gait measures are within reference. Peak force, rate of force development and force symmetry are outside it, and all three are measures of force. Postural sway and limits of stability are also outside reference.

03 · Comparison to prior tests

Since the three-month study, gait speed has risen from 0.96 to 1.10 m/s and crossed into reference. Peak force rose from 8.4 to 10.2 N/kg and force symmetry improved from 23% to 16%; both are still outside reference.

Why we built this

Health is
what you can do.

  • Imaging How the body is built.
  • Blood work What is in the blood.
  • Biomechanics What a person can do.

Walking on your own. Keeping up with the people you love. Taking part in everyday life. These are the moments that define recovery. Moviq Health was founded by physical therapists who believed function deserved the same precision and rigor as every other part of medicine. We are building a future where clinicians can measure how people move, track recovery over time, and make care more responsive to how patients function.
