The\u00a0Functional Movement Screen (FMS) is more than simply a screen &#8211; rather, it is part of a larger philosophy that identifies <i>movement dysfunction objectively, and together with my subjective eye and programming, gets\u00a0<\/i><i>people\u00a0<\/i><i>interested and empowered with self correction to prevent pain &amp; injury<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p>The Functional Movement Screen (FMS) assesses seven basic movement patterns to identify tightness and weakness in the body \u2013 so I can help you correct them before they cause major problems. Think of it as a way to help you see and address your body\u2019s <i>\u201cblind spots\u201d<\/i> more clearly. Body <i>blind spots<\/i> are areas of overuse, underuse, misuse, abuse, or areas you just don\u2019t perceive very well and left untouched, these spots are catalysts for pain and injury. The FMS helps me identify muscle asymmetries, tightness, weakness and other risk factors for injury by examining the mobility and stability of the hips, core, shoulders, knees, spine and ankles.\u00a0I work with <a href=\"http:\/\/sgmovement.com\/what-i-do\/sports-teams\/\">sports teams<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/sgmovement.com\/what-i-do\/student-athletes\/\">student athletes<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/sgmovement.com\/what-i-do\/fitness-recreational-athletes\/\">fitness &amp; recreational athletes<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/sgmovement.com\/what-i-do\/yoga\/\">yogis<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/sgmovement.com\/what-i-do\/companies\/\">companies<\/a> to help empower self care and to build a resilient and sustainable body.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Movement is the universal language of human expression.
