Better Days is the only physical therapy clinic in Northern Michigan that uses state of the art technology to assess movement and strength.

Force Plates

Force plates consist of two plates that can assess various movements of both the upper body and lower body. Results provide objective data regarding weight distribution (such as during a squat), reactive strength (such as while jumping), balance, and maximum strength.
