The First Step Toward Moving Better, Safer, and Stronger
When your body moves poorly, pain is never far behind. At Eastside Ideal Health in Redmond, our Functional Movement Assessments identify the root causes of imbalance, instability, and mechanical stress—so you can move more efficiently, prevent injury, and heal with precision.
Find Out What’s Holding You Back—And How to Fix It
Most injuries don’t start with trauma—they start with poor movement patterns that build over time. Whether you’re recovering from pain or looking to optimize performance, a movement assessment helps pinpoint what’s breaking down before something breaks.
What Is a Functional Movement Assessment?
This isn’t just a range-of-motion check. Our team uses a blend of standardized tools—like the Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) and the Functional Movement Screen (FMS)—to evaluate how your joints and muscles interact through everyday movements like squatting, bending, reaching, and rotating.
These assessments uncover compensations, restrictions, and asymmetries that can lead to chronic pain or injury if left unaddressed.
Who Can Benefit?
- Patients recovering from chronic or recurring pain
- Athletes wanting to improve performance or avoid injury
- Post-surgical patients regaining foundational movement
- Anyone with stiffness, instability, or unexplained discomfort
- New clients seeking a baseline before starting chiropractic or rehab care
What to Expect During Your Movement Assessment
- Initial Interview: We learn about your goals, movement history, and current challenges.
- Movement Testing: You’ll perform specific patterns like lunges, rotations, overhead reaches, and gait movements.
- Scoring & Analysis: We identify which movement patterns are dysfunctional or asymmetrical and why.
- Corrective Plan: We prescribe targeted mobility, stability, or motor control drills tailored to your results.
All assessments are conducted one-on-one with a certified clinician and take approximately 30–45 minutes.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What should I wear?
- Comfortable, athletic clothing that allows full movement—like a t-shirt, shorts, or leggings.
- Do I need to be in pain to benefit?
- Not at all. Movement assessments are ideal for preventing injury and optimizing function before symptoms show up.
- Is this the same as physical therapy?
- No. This is a diagnostic tool that guides therapy, chiropractic, or mobility interventions—but it is not PT on its own.
