“Rehab Athletes Like Athletes” (And Prove It With Data)

PTs are expected to be the movement experts—yet most movement assessment is still subjective: “knee valgus noted,” “pelvic drop,” “looks better.” Dan Seidler (Business Development Lead, DorsaVi USA) and Maka Lange unpack what changes when clinics can quantify biomechanics with video AI and wearable sensors.They cover how objective data improves patient education and buy-in, strengthens documentation, and makes return-to-play/return-to-work decisions more defensible—especially as AI, wearables, and non-PT competitors raise the bar for “measured” care.What you’ll learnWhy “eyeballing” biomechanics breaks down across cliniciansHow objective data can improve patient buy-in and clarityThe difference between quick video AI assessments vs IMU sensor “gold standard” testingHow standardized movement reports can help documentation and communicationUse cases: mass athlete screenings, surgeon referrals, workplace safety, workers’ comp/FCEs, and early pelvic health biofeedback workGuest + LinksDorsaVi: http://www.dorsavi.com/
