FITS Toronto is the first facility of its kind in North America to use a 5-Site Integrity approach to treating bodily pain. Utilizing cutting edge video technology, our motion analysis program examines how your entire body moves during basic movements. From there we begin to address movement dysfunction, in order to determine the source of your pain, as well as correcting predisposing factors that may eventually lead to pain. Our specially trained staff will then create a plan to develop your mobility, strength, power, reactive abilities and aerobic capacity. This means not only eliminating pain, but forging the way to attaining your peak bodily performance.

INJURY PROOF ASSESSMENT

The secret to our approach lies in how we assess you through posture, mobility, movement, output and capacity. Movement is central to our approach because how you move determines your susceptibility to injury. Correct movements will load tissues as designed. Incorrect movements will lead to injuries.

INJURY PROOF ASSESSMENT: PROCESS

1. HISTORY AND GOAL SETTING: We take a complete medical history and listen to your goals.

2. ANALYSIS: Using cutting edge video motion capture and 5 Site Integrity we analyze your posture and how you move and produce forces during low load, high load and sport specific movements.

3. HANDS ON-EXAMINATION: We perform a focused orthopaedic evaluation and manual muscle testing of identified areas.

4. REPORT: We provide a report explaining our findings and we develop a plan to correct identified movement dysfunctions through posture, mobility, movement, strength, power, reactive abilities and work capacity.

5. TREATMENT with TRAINING: Factoring in your lifestyle and your goals we combine therapies with clinical conditioning to develop proper movement patterns and to correct postural habits.

Integrative Approach. By combining healthcare services and clinical conditioning we make you move correctly; reducing the reoccurrence of injury and helping you function better at work, during competitions, and play. Developing movement capacities allows you to enjoy the highest quality of life, because if you can’t get there it’s hard to enjoy it.
