WHY SHOULD YOU GET TESTED?

Check out the short clip to find out why our 9- step testing system will help you be physically and mentally prepared for sport.

ARE YOU REALLY READY TO RETURN TO SPORT?

Our return to sport testing system helps amateur and elite athletes get the answers and confidence they need to take the next step towards their return!

Currently, approximately only 10% of people pass a return to sport test battery before returning to sport, putting themselves at a significantly greater chance of injury.

This results in approximately 20-30% of people reinjuring their knees.

But don’t fear; research has shown that if you pass return to sport criteria, your risk of injury is reduced by up to 90%. 

We utilise the latest evidence and some of the most advanced sports science technology available to identify your strengths, weaknesses, and blind spots

Our 9-Step Testing System

1) A complete understanding of your injury history and goals

To help you, we need to understand you. The first step is getting a thorough history of your injury, rehab, and goals.

2) Clinical baseline assessment

Make sure the fundamental boxes are ticked. Assess your pain levels, range of motion, flexibility, swelling and ligament laxity.

3) Strength benchmarking

We use our specialised equipment to assess symmetry between limbs and compare to benchmark standards for your gender, weight, and sport. Strength is the foundation of resilience.

4) Power and plyometric assessment

A battery of hop and jump tests to assess your leg power and plyometric ability. Ensure that you can handle the demands of sport and move in all planes of motion.

5) VALD Performance force plate analysis

Utilising the latest in sport science technology, we can dive deep into how you move to identify weaknesses and blind spots not possible to see with the eye.

6) Agility and landing assessment

It is not enough to be strong. It is a recipe for disaster if you still do the fundamental sporting actions with poor technique.

7) Psychological screening

One of the biggest reasons people don’t return to sport or do not return to their previous best is a lack of confidence and fear of reinjury. Our screening will identify those not mentally ready to step back on the field.

8) Return to sport test report

Receive a detailed report highlighting your strengths and weaknesses.

9) Testing session de-brief

Once you receive your results, you will receive a call from us. Dive into your results so you genuinely understand what they mean and confidently map your return to sport.

Couldn’t recommend Adam and the physios at Gold Coast Knee Group enough! It’s awesome to have their guidance and advice whilst completing the rehab and they’ve given me a lot of confidence as I get closer to returning to sport!

My ACL injury made me realise not only how much physical recovery was involved, but how much mental recovery was also needed. Adam, Dan and Yas were there every step of the way and helped set me up to come back to sports. As a coach now, I try to incorporate the lessons they taught me to rising athletes to reduce the risk of knee injury occurring to them. Couldn't recommend GCKG more!

Injury ACL & meniscus tear. I found out about this program through my surgeon and I am thankful for that. I started the program after some initial minor rehab post surgery. The change from day 1 to the end of the program was significant. I recall asking by the end which knee I had actually injured. The program and the team helped physically but also mentally, which is almost as important when considering a return to sport. This was a few years ago so I'm sure the program has only improved since then.

The staff at GCKG are amazing, some of the nicest and welcoming people i have met. Not only are they caring but phenomenal at what they do to improve others well being and push you to achieve new goals. I have an ACL injury and the staff at this clinic have improved my confidence, provided me the best workouts for my knee to get stronger and have consistently motivated me to push myself harder each session, they truly are amazing.

Adam and the team at the Gold Coast Knee Group were the best in assisting me to recover from my ACL, MCL & meniscus injury. At each testing stage, I saw major improvements and now, around 2 years post injury, I have been back playing AFL for the past 6 months with no issues. There is also a great social element to the group as there are other individuals who have gone through the same injury that you are also completing rehab with! Highly recommend.
