The swim screening tool is a comprehensive assessment tool that helped identifies areas that may be limiting swimming performance and contributing to injuries.

 

Swim screening assessment tool aims to identifies specific swimming characterises, mobility and strength deficits, as well as functional movements that potentially are impacting the swimming stroke. Through the use of our VALD ForceFrame and strength dynamometer, the screening will identify a base line strength measure which will enable you and your physiotherapist to monitor and progress changes in strength over time.

 

Following the screening, the athletes will be provided with a summary of strengths and weaknesses identified in the screening, as well as an individualised exercise and treatment plan to help address any weakness.

 

Our swim screening assessments are performed by our physiotherapists Amelia Tregear and James Green. Amelia has been physiotherapist for both the Australian Swim Team and Australian Triathlon Team, while James is the Head Physiotherapist for Nunawading at the Age Swim National Championships.
