Cycling Medicine
Cycling medicine at LOR breaks down your cycling mechanics with 2D motion capture technology. By the end of the first session you know what you need to do to prevent or rehabilitate from an injury, whether you are an advanced rider or a weekend warrior. Don’t just think rehab. Think performance.
Why a cycling evaluation
Do you have pain with cycling? Do you know why? We don’t just treat your symptoms. We find the underlying cause.
Exact movements, measured
The system accurately assesses and analyzes your exact movements as you pedal.
Muscle timing
Our cycling medicine page also describes electromyographic biofeedback (EMGBF), used to assess the quality and timing of the muscle groups involved in the pedal stroke.
For every rider
Advanced riders and weekend warriors both get the same detail.
What to expect
History and exam
A thorough history, then a physical therapy exam of your musculoskeletal system.
Filmed on your bike
LED markers go on your body to help calculate joint angles while you cycle in the clinic. High-speed cameras capture your exact movements as you pedal.
A written report
You receive a written report and a verbal explanation of the cause of your pain. Exercise recommendations to start your rehabilitation come on day one, with a time-frame for your expected recovery.
