Video Analysis
Article by John Miller
What is Video Analysis?
Video analysis is essentially the assessment of your walking, running, throwing, kicking, swinging or movement pattern using slow-motion video analysis.
Experienced movement analysts such as your physiotherapist will be able to analyse your walking, running, throwing, kicking, swing or movement pattern to detect where things are going wrong.
Amazingly, it only takes a bit of slow-motion action to identify where things are stiff, weak or twisted. Things that can result in pain or injury.
At PhysioWorks we use video analysis for:
- Running analysis
- Walking analysis
- Cycling analysis – Visit our Professional Bike Fit Webpage
- Throwing analysis
- Golf swing analysis
- Lifting analysis

Sports Physiotherapy FAQs
Sports Physiotherapy is the specialised branch of physiotherapy which deals with injuries and issues related to spokespeople. Practitioners with additional formal training within Australia are Sports & Exercise Physiotherapists.
What is Sports Physiotherapy?
Sports injuries do differ from common everyday injuries. Athletes usually require high-level performance and demands placed upon their bodies, which stresses their muscles, joints and bones to the limit. Sports physiotherapists help athletes recover from sporting injuries and provide education and resources to prevent problems. Each sports physiotherapist usually has sport-specific knowledge that addresses acute, chronic and overuse injuries. Their services are generally available to sportsmen and women of all ages engaged in sports at any level of competition.
Members of Sports Physiotherapy Australia (SPA) have experience and knowledge of the latest evidence-based practice, professional assessment and diagnosis of sports injuries, and effective hands-on management techniques and exercise protocols to assist recovery and prevent future damage. SPA members have access to the most recent advances in sports physiotherapy. You'll be pleased to know that most PhysioWorks physiotherapists and massage therapists are particularly interested in sports injury management.
