Testing and Therapy Services

Unfortunately, up to 40% of athletes who return to sports after ACL reconstruction will experience re-injury.
However, your injury risk can be minimized with objective isokinetic and force plate testing. Detailed test reports uncover weakness and imbalances that can increase your reinjury risk.
Testing in each phase of your rehab can guide your physical therapist’s treatment plan to ensure optimal programming for the best outcome.
Testing includes:
Month 3: Isometric strength and rate test on Humac NORM; Single leg balance and squat Assessment on Vald ForceDecks
Month 4: Standard Isokinetic Test and Isometric Rate of Torque Production on Humac NORM; Loaded Squat Assessment and Countermovement jump on Vald ForceDecks
Months 5-12+: Advanced Isokinetic Test (concentric-eccentric) and Rate of Torque Production on Humac Norm; Countermovement jump (bilateral and single leg) and drop jump on Vald ForceDecks
Detailed written and video reports will be provided to the patient, physical therapist, physician, athletic trainer, or strength coach
Other injuries appropriate for testing before returning to sports: ACL, Total Knee Replacement, Rotator Cuff Repair, SLAP Repair, Tommy John Repair, Achilles Tendon Repair, ankle sprains, muscle strains, ligament strains

Unleash your full athletic potential with our Strength & Conditioning Package. A large gap exists between completing formal physical therapy and returning fully to sports. At ProActive we work with you following discharge from your traditional physical therapy program and get you back on the field or court safely with a focus on safety and sports performance.
We begin with an examination including Isokinetic and Force Plate testing and then develop an individualized training program to fit your needs.

Are you suffering through a sports injury and want to rehab with high-end advanced sports medicine equipment? Have you been through traditional physical therapy treatment without fully fixing the problem? We start with an examination to allow us to identify the weak links that are causing or contributing to your issue. Based on the findings, we will develop a plan of care specific to your needs.
Individual sessions: $250 per session
5 session package: $200 per session
10 session package: $175 per session

What To Expect In Your Testing Session
When you come in, we’ll start with a 15-20min warm-up starting either on the treadmill or bike, and then we’ll do a general movement warmup in the gym. Next, we’ll move on to the tests and we start with the Vald ForceDecks System which looks at the entire lower extremity strength and power.
Then we’ll go to the Humac NORM isokinetic system for testing that isolates each individual muscle for strength testing and rate of torque development.
When we’re finished I’ll go over the results with you and break down what they mean.
The numbers and torque lines tell us is where you are along the rehab process by quantifying each segments strength and muscle balance. This lets us know your areas that need to be focused on in your next phase of training as well as your relative risk of re-injury and can let us estimate your return to sport timeline.
After you leave I’ll send you, your rehab team, and the surgeon the reports and I’ll also make a written and video breakdown of my interpretation.
As we do not participate with insurance companies, you will submit payment directly to us either in person or through our medical records host (JaneApp). Once we receive payment, I’ll email you a Superbill receipt that you can submit to your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement.
Our Equipment Makes the Difference
Humac NORM Isokinetic System
After injury and surgery, the strength of key muscles systems is diminished. The Humac NORM Isokinetic system is the best way to uncover strength deficits and imbalances which can place you at a higher risk of re-injury with return to sports. Training on the Humac NORM targets those specific deficiencies to reduce your injury risk and improve sports performance.
Vald ForceDecks
As part of your rehabilitation after injury or surgery, you will perform jumping and agility tasks. Unfortunately, the human body is really good at relearning compensation movement patterns to perform those tasks which can mask readiness for return to sports and increase the risk of reinjury. The ForceDecks System by VALD is able to uncover asymmetries with jumping and landing tasks to reduce that injury risk and get you functioning at full capacity on the field or court.
Humac Computerized Balance
Whether you sustained an ankle sprain, ACL-r, or a Total Knee Replacement, computerized balance helps restore proprioceptive control early through visual biofeedback during weight shifting tasks and closed kinetic exercise. After injury, the body will naturally learn to compensate, but the HUMAC Computerized Balance System by CSMi allows patients to see how they’re loading and moving in order to not learn bad movement habits that can be hard to break once developed.
Shuttle MVP Pro 3300
After injury or surgery, you will not be able to safely load your full body weight on the injured limb but the The SHUTTLE MVP PRO, we can unload the your weight allowing you to return to squatting and jumping activities early. As you progress through rehab, the SHUTTLE MVP allows us to load as heavy as 700lbs for continued sports progression
Blood flow Restriction Training
Blood Flow Restriction training (BFRt) combines limb occlusion and low-load exercise to trigger the body’s natural anabolic pathways. You get the same training effect of exercising at light loads with BFR as you do with heavier loads without BFR. This allows us to get the strengthening effects earlier in the rehab process while your injury limits how heavy you’re able to load.
BlazePods Reaction Training System
One of the biggest obstacles to returning to sports is the ability to adapt to your opponent. BlazePods is a neurocognitive reaction training system that improves your reaction time, agility, and sports performance that allows you to return to your sport at the highest level of readiness.
Strength and Conditioning
After being discharged from your traditional physical therapy care, the next step is getting the strength and work capacity required for your sport or activity. At ProActive we have the equipment you’ll need and the expertise to progress you safely along your strength and conditioning program to prepare you to get back on the court or field.
SquatMax MD Belt Squat
This belt squat system allows you to return to squatting heavier loads to challenge the musculature of the legs without loading the spine. With the load positioned below the athlete, this more closely mimics the natural squatting motion compared to other belt squat systems.
Self-Pay PT Practice
In a self-pay or “Cash-based” treatment model, we’re able to customize your care based on what you require.
You control the care, not the insurance company
You’ll pay for services directly which allows our team to provide you one-on-one specialized care fit to your needs. We’ll assess your current capacity and tailor your treatment based on your goals.
You can pay for physical therapy services with your HSA, FSA, credit/debit card.
We will provide you with a Superbill, or physical therapy receipt, that you can submit to your insurance company for out-of-network reimbursement. Contact your insurance company to check your benefits specifics.
