Human Movement & Biomechanics

Understand How People Move. Improve How They Perform.

Movement quality influences performance, injury risk, rehabilitation outcomes and long-term health.

Modern biomechanics laboratories provide objective insights into movement that cannot be captured through observation alone.

LifeMax has helped establish movement analysis environments ranging from private practice gait clinics to advanced university biomechanics laboratories throughout Southern Africa.

Applications

  • Running analysis
  • Gait assessment

  • Injury prevention

  • Ergonomics

  • Clinical movement analysis

Why We Chose Our Partners

Our Partner Philosophy

Funding opportunities for laboratories often arise only once every five to ten years.

Technology decisions must therefore be made with a long-term view.

LifeMax partners with manufacturers recognised globally for scientific validity, reliability, upgradeability and long-term support.
