Wellness Lexington KY

New Direction Wellness and PT, LLC, a full-service firm, offers mobility assessments for individuals (of all ages) that are managing discomfort or pain in their knees, ankles, or other lower extremity issues.

​

From their location in Lexington KY, New Direction’s mobility assessments have been designed to measure each client’s functional mobility with regard to full-range strength training – ultimately assessing a client’s mobility by measuring their basic range of motion in different areas of the body.

​

New Direction Wellness’s licensed providers are trained to discern which areas their clients need to focus on to reach their strength training and mobility objectives.

​

The mobility assessments offered by New Direction Wellness include, in part, -

​

• A Full Squat -this assesses one’s hip flexion range of motion as well as one’s ankle dorsiflexion.

• The Pike Position - Pike position tests the hamstring, hip, and lumbar spine range of motion from a forward flexion at the waist.

• An Active Spinal Extension - the most basic move that tests rectus abdominis & lumbar spine extensions.

• An Active Shoulder Flexion - this assesses one’s ability to access a full shoulder flexion.

• An Active Shoulder Extension - this assesses one’s ability to access the full shoulder extension.

 

The ultimate objective of performing a mobility assessment is to determine how to help individuals improve their movement and help individuals reduce the potential risk of injury.
