The precision
of elite sport.
Applied to healthcare.

Elite sports measure movement because objective data improves decisions. Healthcare still relies heavily on observation for conditions where movement determines recovery. Moviq Health brings laboratory-grade biomechanics into routine clinical care, transforming human movement into objective evidence clinicians can use to guide treatment, monitor progress, and document outcomes.

Objective Evidence Beyond observation.
Standardized Measurement Laboratory-grade biomechanics.
Clinical Decision Support Data that informs care.
The Measurement Standard

The standard of elite sport.
Now the standard for healthcare.

Elite athlete undergoing biomechanical assessment
When performance depends on movement, precision is essential.

Elite athletes are measured because the smallest changes in movement can influence performance, recovery, and injury risk. Objective biomechanics provides the evidence needed to make confident, high-stakes decisions.

Patient undergoing movement assessment
When health depends on movement, measurement should be no different.

Movement influences decisions about fall risk, rehabilitation, surgical recovery, neurological disease, and functional independence. Every patient deserves objective movement measurement that makes change visible, measurable, and clinically meaningful.

Clinical questions

The questions clinicians ask.
The data that answers them.

01 Is this patient recovering as expected?
Recovery progression

Objective evidence determines whether recovery is progressing normally or whether meaningful deficits persist.

Measurement Unit What it reveals
Gait speed m/s Functional capacity progressing or plateauing.
Relative peak force N/kg Normal loading or persistent unloading.
Relative peak power W/kg Power restored or persistent deficit.
Stride length mm Walking mechanics normalizing.
Ground contact time ms Normal weight acceptance during walking.
Decision supported Progress, plateau, or modify.
02 How does this patient compare to healthy individuals?
Reference standard

Comparing objective measurements to healthy population reference standards reveals whether function is normal, impaired, or meaningfully below expectation.

Measurement Unit What it reveals
Gait speed m/s Walking performance relative to population norms.
Stride length mm Whether gait mechanics fall within expected ranges.
Relative peak force N/kg Force generation compared with healthy adults.
Symmetry index % Whether side-to-side differences exceed normal variation.
Limits of stability cm² Dynamic balance performance relative to normative values.
Decision supported Quantify functional impairment against an objective clinical standard.
03 Is this patient at risk of falling?
Fall risk

Most falls are preceded by measurable changes in balance. Observation alone often misses them.

Measurement Unit What it reveals
Postural sway cm Excessive postural instability.
Limits of stability cm² Safe weight shifting and balance control.
mCTSIB cm Primary source of balance impairment.
Gait speed m/s Walking speed associated with fall risk.
Step width mm Compensatory balance strategy during walking.
Decision supported Intervene before a fall occurs.
04 Is the current treatment working?
Outcome monitoring

Symptoms fluctuate. Objective measurements reveal whether treatment is producing meaningful functional change.

Measurement Unit What it reveals
Gait speed m/s Recovery trend across visits.
Postural sway cm Balance improving or deteriorating.
Relative impulse N·s/kg Mechanical loading over time.
Stride length mm Progress toward normal gait mechanics.
Weight distribution % Restoration of symmetrical loading.
Decision supported Continue, modify, or escalate treatment.
05 Is this patient ready to return?
Return-to-function

Symptoms may improve before function does. Objective testing identifies residual deficits that increase reinjury risk.

Measurement Unit What it reveals
Relative peak force N/kg Sufficient force for full activity.
Relative RFD N/s/kg Rapid force generation for dynamic tasks.
Symmetry index % Residual asymmetry associated with reinjury risk.
Gait speed m/s Walking performance restored to expected levels.
Limits of stability cm² Balance adequate for higher functional demands.
Decision supported Clear or hold.
Reducing uncertainty

Measurement produces answers.

Clinical Biomechanics Report
Clinical Summary Fall Risk  ·  Moviq Health

Clinical biomechanics testing demonstrated gait function within normative limits (1.10 m/s). Force analysis revealed reduced peak force (10.2 N/kg vs. ≥11.5 N/kg), diminished rate of force development (26 vs. ≥30 N/s/kg), and persistent loading asymmetry (16% vs. ≤10%). Balance assessment identified elevated postural sway (46 cm vs. ≤30 cm). Collectively, these findings are consistent with elevated fall risk despite preserved ambulatory performance.
