Shoulder Testing and Analysis in Salt Lake City

Testing and analysis at TKM Labs is an objective evaluation of shoulder and elbow strength, function, and movement quality. Using our data-driven approach and tools like the Humero Tech C1®, we identify deficits, asymmetries, and readiness markers that may not be obvious by feel alone. Your Doctor of Physical Therapy uses the results to build a precise plan for rehab, performance, or return to activity.

Full-motion strength profiling measures how your shoulder or elbow produces force throughout the entire movement, not just at one fixed position. At TKM Labs in Salt Lake City, we use tools like the Humero Tech C1® to identify strength gaps, asymmetries, and compensation patterns with objective data. This helps your Doctor of Physical Therapy build a targeted plan for rehab, performance, or return-to-sport decisions.

An upper extremity biomechanical assessment looks at how your shoulder, elbow, and surrounding joints move, load, and compensate during activity. At TKM Labs, this may include strength testing, range-of-motion analysis, movement screening, and objective measurement with tools like the Humero Tech C1® when appropriate. Your Doctor of Physical Therapy uses the data to identify limitations, guide treatment, and create a clearer path back to sport, work, or daily function.

Most upper extremity testing and analysis sessions are completed within a 60-minute one-on-one appointment with a Doctor of Physical Therapy. This gives us time to gather objective strength and movement data, review what it means, and connect the findings to your shoulder or elbow goals. If your case is more complex or sport-specific, we’ll let you know what to expect before your visit.

A general PT evaluation often looks at the whole body and uses standard strength and movement screens. At TKM Labs, testing is focused specifically on the shoulder and elbow, using objective data and the Humero Tech C1® to measure strength, deficits, and progress with precision.
