Biomechanics is the study of how forces act on the body, including the effects of muscle activity and gravity on your skeletal system. Poor posture and repetitive strain—such as prolonged sitting, standing asymmetrically, or training—can lead to muscle imbalances and uneven load on the body.

At Birkill Physiotherapists, we perform thorough biomechanical and postural assessments to identify these imbalances.

We assess joint mobility, as well as muscle strength and weaknesses, to help treat and prevent pain and dysfunction. These assessments are beneficial for everyone, from desk-based individuals to professional athletes.
