At Revolve Performance Rehab, our professionals utilize Selective Functional Movement Assessment (SFMA) to uncover the root cause of pain and movement dysfunction—going beyond just treating symptoms.

SFMA is a comprehensive, movement-based diagnostic system designed to identify faulty movement patterns and reveal how seemingly unrelated areas of the body may be contributing to pain or limitation. This concept, known as regional interdependence, acknowledges that dysfunction in one region—such as the hips or spine—can often influence symptoms in another area, like the shoulder or knee.

Performed by clinicians who have completed advanced training, SFMA breaks down complex movements into individual segments through a structured, repeatable assessment. This allows us to clearly distinguish between mobility and stability issues, and tailor rehabilitation plans to address the underlying source of dysfunction.

SFMA can be applied to patients of all ages and activity levels—from athletes with performance limitations to individuals recovering from injury. With this deeper insight, we’re able to deliver more targeted, effective treatment that helps you move better, feel better, and prevent future injury.

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) is an approach to rehabilitation and movement therapy that focuses on the restoration of optimal movement patterns by addressing the central nervous system's control of posture and movement. It is based on the principles of developmental kinesiology, which observe the way infants naturally develop motor control and movement patterns.

Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS) has various applications in rehabilitation, sports performance, and general movement optimization. Here's a breakdown of its applications:

1. Rehabilitation: DNS is widely used in physical therapy and rehabilitation settings to address musculoskeletal injuries, including back pain, neck pain, joint injuries, and post-surgical rehabilitation. By restoring optimal movement patterns and neuromuscular control, DNS helps alleviate pain, improve function, and prevent future injuries.

2. Sports Performance Enhancement: Athletes and coaches utilize DNS principles to enhance athletic performance and reduce the risk of injury. By optimizing movement efficiency, joint stability, and neuromuscular control, DNS training can improve agility, speed, strength, and power in athletes across various sports disciplines.

3. Postural Correction: DNS techniques are effective for correcting postural abnormalities and imbalances by retraining the body's inherent stabilization mechanisms. By promoting proper alignment, muscle balance, and core stability, DNS helps improve posture and reduce the risk of musculoskeletal pain and dysfunction associated with poor posture.

4. Prevention of Recurrent Injuries: DNS aims to address the underlying causes of musculoskeletal injuries and dysfunction, making it an effective approach for preventing recurrent injuries. By optimizing movement patterns, joint stability, and neuromuscular control, DNS helps individuals maintain optimal musculoskeletal health and reduce the risk of future injuries.

5. Pain Management: DNS techniques can be used as part of a comprehensive approach to pain management, particularly for chronic musculoskeletal conditions. By addressing underlying movement dysfunctions and promoting proper biomechanics, DNS can help reduce pain, improve function, and enhance quality of life for individuals living with chronic pain.

6. Functional Movement Training: DNS emphasizes functional movement patterns that mimic activities of daily living and sports-specific movements. By incorporating these movements into training programs, individuals can improve their ability to perform tasks efficiently and with reduced risk of injury.

Overall, the application of DNS spans a wide range of disciplines, including rehabilitation, sports performance, injury prevention, and general movement optimization. Its focus on restoring optimal movement patterns, neuromuscular control, and joint stability makes it a valuable approach for improving musculoskeletal health and performance in various populations.
