OUR SCIENCE

Movement with clarity and rigor.

Moviq Health applies biomechanics science through structured, repeatable testing protocols to measure mobility with consistency. Our reports translate movement data into standardized baselines and longitudinal comparisons so clinics can document change and communicate mobility and function with clarity.

OUR SCIENTIFIC APPROACH
Moviq Health movement measurement

Understanding movement through biomechanics.

Two people may appear to walk the same, but their underlying mechanisms may be completely different. Understanding movement in details offers a detailed picture of how individuals navigate through daily life.

Moviq Health organizes biomechanical measurements into clear, high-resolution information that helps clinics observe movement with greater context, follow changes over time, and support meaningful discussions about functional health.

MOVEMENT, MEASURED.

High-resolution data to enhance understanding

Movement
Measured
Spatiotemporal

Describes timing, rhythm, and step characteristics that shape overall walking patterns.

Kinematics

Shows how different parts of the body move and coordinate during activity.

Force Output

Summarizes how individuals generate and transfer force relative to their movement tasks.

Stability

Outlines patterns of balance control, sway, and the ability to maintain steady motion.

SCIENTIFIC FOUNDATION

From Research to Understanding

Research in biomechanics provides valuable insight into how people move and how movement patterns relate to strength, balance, and functional capacity.

Gait speed functions as a biomechanical vital sign, integrating coordination, force production, and balance. Slower speeds often reflect reduced push-off power and longer time spent in double support.

Many standard screens rely on subjective scoring. Objective biomechanical measurement better captures underlying mechanisms of balance, timing, and reactive control.

Lower Limb Strength and Prospective Falls BMC Geriatrics 2025

Weakness in the knee extensors and plantarflexors contributes to shorter steps, lower power output, and reduced walking rhythm—key predictors of fall risk.

Gait Biomechanical Parameters Related to Falls Biomechanics 2024

Reduced ankle push-off, diminished forward GRF progression, and variable step timing consistently correlate with increased fall risk.

REPORT OVERVIEW

Inside a Moviq Health report

Each report organizes biomechanical metrics into a clear, easy-to-navigate format. The goal is to present information in a way that helps providers quickly understand patient's function.

Moviq Health sample report
  • 1
    Mobility Summary
    Offers a brief narrative description of observed movement characteristics, highlighting notable features across gait, balance, or force-related patterns.
  • 2
    Metric Distribution
    Displays how measurement values are distributed across reference values establised by the latest evidence.
  • 3
    Biomechanics Results
    A clear display of results measured during the session, organized into domains.

IMPACT IN PRACTICE

What it means for your practice

Moviq Health organizes mobility-related information in a clear, accessible format so teams can review patterns efficiently within routine workflow.

See change sooner

Consistent check-ins make it easier to notice shifts in walking, balance, and strength over time.

Align the whole team

Share a common snapshot across providers so everyone references the same mobility picture at follow-ups.

Make follow-ups simpler

Standardized summaries help compare visits quickly and support practical next-step discussions with patients.

NEXT STEP

Bring high-fidelity mobility data into your practice.

If your clinic is exploring ways to make mobility a more visible part of care, we can walk you through the dashboard, the reports, and how Moviq Health supports your existing workflow.
