Goodbyes are hard, but we're so excited for Marinda Bornman's next big adventure! Thanks for being an awesome teammate and for always bringing positive energy! 👏

Marinda's clients will be handed over to the very capable hands of Jami Beadon, who joins our team this year.
We’re so excited to have you on board! 🔥

🤕 We know what happens on the physical level post-injury

🧠 But what about at the neurological level?

📊 Here are some neurological changes typically seen with common injuries

Curious about biokinetics? 💪

The Humac Norm Cybex isokinetic dynamometer is used for testing and improving human performance and rehabilitation by measuring and analyzing movement data across various joints like the knee, shoulder, and hip. It allows for precise, isolated-joint testing and exercises using four resistance modes—isokinetic, isotonic, isometric, and passive—to identify deficits, set treatment goals, monitor progress, and provide effective therapy. 

📍Key uses of the Humac Norm Cybex:

Performance Assessment: It measures strength, muscle endurance, and other performance metrics in a precise, repeatable way. 

Injury Rehabilitation: Biokineticists use it to design tailored rehabilitation programs, focusing on specific areas and types of muscle contractions. 

Return-to-Sport Readiness: By providing detailed data, it helps specialists determine if an athlete is ready to safely return to their sport after an injury. 

Research: It serves as a reliable tool for studying human movement, muscle function, and the effects of various exercises in research settings. 

Advanced Therapy: In addition to strengthening, it offers modes to increase range of motion, improve stability, and aid in neuromuscular re-education and tissue loading. 

💡How it works:

The system uses sensors to capture and analyze movement data as a patient performs specific movements.

It offers detailed graphic and numeric reports comparing the involved and uninvolved sides of the body.

Clinicians can use these reports to pinpoint weaknesses, track progress over time, and adjust treatment plans accordingly.

🧠 + ⚖️ = 💪
Balance isn’t just about standing still — it’s about unlocking your full movement potential.

At Nadine Harding Biokineticist, we use the Humac Norm Balance System, a high-tech tool used in rehabilitation and performance settings to measure, train, and improve balance, stability, and neuromuscular control.

🔍 What it does:

1. Objectively Measures Balance

The system uses a computerized force plate to detect and analyze subtle shifts in your body's weight distribution while standing or moving.

It provides real-time data on how well a person maintains balance under different conditions (eyes open/closed, single-leg stance, unstable surfaces, etc.).

2. Provides Balance Training Programs

It doesn’t just assess—it also trains.

With built-in balance training games and tasks, it makes rehabilitation interactive and engaging, encouraging motor learning and neuroplasticity.

3. Helps with Clinical Decision-Making

Biokineticists use the data to tailor rehab and conditioning programs based on your individual balance deficits or asymmetries.

✅ Used For:

🔵Fall prevention (especially in the elderly)

🔵Post-surgical rehab (e.g. ankle, knee, or hip surgery)

🔵Neurological rehab (e.g. stroke, Parkinson’s)

🔵Sports performance & injury prevention

🔵Concussion recovery & return-to-play decisions

💡 Whether you're recovering from surgery, managing a condition, or striving to perform better — your balance matters. Biokineticists can help you train smarter, move better, and live stronger.
