gymSAFE Gymnastics Screening

Gymnastics asks a lot of a young athlete’s body. The gymSAFE Movement Screen is a quick, one-on-one evaluation that looks at a gymnast’s strength, flexibility and movement patterns to find weak spots before they turn into injuries.

What the screen looks for

The gymSAFE Movement Screen identifies “red flags” such as weakness, imbalance or movement problems that can raise a gymnast’s risk of the injuries common in competitive gymnastics. A red flag isn’t an injury. It’s an area worth working on now, so it doesn’t become one later.

What to expect

• A 40-minute, fully individualized session with a physical therapist
• The screen itself takes about 20 minutes
• Your gymnast gets individualized results and feedback right away
• The therapist reviews any areas that need attention
• You leave with a personalized preventative exercise plan

Who performs the screen

Screens are performed by Laura Wiltshire, PT, MSPT, at our Auburn clinic.

Cost

The gymSAFE Movement Screen is a self-pay service at $100 per session, collected at the time of the visit. It is not billed to insurance.
