VALD Objective Testing: Return to Performance

At Pro Health Physio, we’ve invested heavily in VALD performance technology to remove the guesswork completely.

This isn’t just rehab.
This is measured, verified, data-driven progression.

What is VALD testing?

Using industry-leading VALD systems, we can objectively assess:

• Force production & absorption (via Force Plates)
• Limb asymmetries and compensatory strategies
• Rate of force development (how quickly you can produce force)
• Isolated muscle strength (via dynamometry — quads, hamstrings, calves, adductors)
• No opinions. No assumptions. Just clear, actionable data.

Why this matters:

You can:

• Jump well… but still have a significant strength deficit
• Feel strong… but lack true force capacity
• Be “pain-free”… but not ready for sport
• Without objective testing, these gaps get missed.
• And that’s exactly why re-injuries happen.

How we use VALD at Pro Health Physio:

We don’t just test once — we track your entire journey.

• Baseline testing → identify deficits
• Mid-stage testing → guide rehab progression
• Return-to-run metrics → ensure readiness
• Return-to-play benchmarks → remove risk
• Performance profiling → take you beyond injury
• Every decision is backed by real numbers, not guesswork.

Integrated with expert rehab

VALD data is only powerful if you know how to apply it.

That’s why our testing is combined with:

• Expert Rehabilitation Strength & Conditioning
• Specialist Physiotherapy input
• Structured progression plans tailored to your data

This is where rehab becomes precision-based.
