EMPOWERING PERFORMANCE & REHABILITATION WITH VALD TECHNOLOGY
At Shellharbour Physiotherapy we are proud to offer cutting-edge VALD technology ↗ to support your recovery, injury prevention, and performance goals.
VALD technology is a collection of advanced assessment tools that provide real-time, objective data to guide your treatment and improve physical performance.
This technology is used around the world in high performance settings to measure, manage and improve athletes’ strength, power, movement, balance, asymmetry and more. At Shellharbour Physiotherapy we believe that everyone can reap the benefits of improved performance through the VALD technology.
The VALD equipment produces precise measurements and detailed data collection which allows our therapists to effectively assess, treat and prescribe for improved performance and physical functioning.
Let’s chat about the 3 devices we have at Shellharbour Physiotherapy to enhance the patient recovery and rehabilitation journey. These devices are utilized by your Physiotherapist or Exercise Physiologist ↗ at different points throughout your recovery.
DynaMo
Handheld Strength & Range of Motion Testing (Early Phase)
DynaMo ↗ is a compact, portable device that allows us to measure both strength and range of motion quickly and accurately, providing instant results that we can share with you during your session. DynaMo helps us pick up on deficits that may not be obvious in day-to-day movement but are important for recovery and performance.
ForceFrame
Strength Testing Made Simple (Early to Mid Phase)
The ForceFrame ↗ allows us to test isometric strength across a variety of muscle groups and joints, including shoulders, hips, knees, and neck. It’s especially helpful for injury screening, return-to-sport decisions, and ongoing rehab monitoring. Whether you're recovering from surgery or managing a chronic condition, the ForceFrame gives us clear, accurate feedback to guide your treatment.
ForceDecks
Dual Force Plate System (End Phase & Return to Sport/Activity)
The ForceDecks ↗ are dual force plates that measure strength, balance, and movement symmetry. The data we gather allows us to identify imbalances, track progress over time, and tailor your rehabilitation program to restore optimal movement and reduce the risk of re-injury.
Why use VALD Technology in treatment?
By integrating these tools into our treatment and intervention we can:
Establish accurate objective baselines
Identify movement or strength deficits
Track improvements over time
Make evidence-informed decisions through the results data base
Individualise your rehabilitation and training plan
Whether you're an athlete, recovering from surgery, or just looking to move better, VALD technology enhances the care we provide.
