How technology is helping support patients’ recovery, strength and independence

The Physiotherapy Clinic at Holy Cross has added a new piece of equipment to its therapy toolbox and it is bringing a whole new level of precision to patient assessments.

The dynamometer allows physiotherapists to test and retest a patient’s strength in every major joint in their body. The highly accurate information provides a clear picture of a patient’s physical ability before, during and after treatment. 

Having this evidence-based information is great for motivating and reassuring patients as they can see how much stronger they are getting session by session. This can be hugely encouraging when working on mobility, balance or post-surgery rehabilitation.

The dynamometer is also a game-changer for athletes. With the data, our physiotherapists can pinpoint weaknesses, track rehab milestones, and tailor strength programmes to complement training goals.

By providing an objective baseline and tracking improvements, the system supports safe, personalised programmes for improving athletic performance. For older patients, it helps with maintaining independence, preventing falls, and staying active later in life.
