Understanding VALD ForceDecks: A Powerful Tool for Performance & Recovery
At The Physio Lab in Central Hong Kong, we’re committed to using evidence-based tools and approaches to support our clients’ recovery, performance, and long-term well-being. One of the most innovative systems we use is the VALD ForceDecks, trusted by elite sports teams, rehabilitation clinics, and performance centres worldwide.
What Are VALD ForceDecks?
VALD ForceDecks are advanced dual force plates designed to measure how the body moves, balances, and produces power. By capturing data in real time, they provide physiotherapists with objective insights into movement patterns, asymmetries, and areas that may benefit from focused training or rehabilitation.
How VALD ForceDecks Support Physiotherapy
ForceDecks can play an important role in both injury prevention and recovery. At The Physio Lab, our physiotherapists use the system to complement assessments and guide treatment plans. Some of the ways this technology can help include:
Accurate Progress Tracking – providing quantifiable data to measure improvements in strength, balance, and performance over time.
Informed Training Adjustments – allowing physiotherapists to make data-driven recommendations for exercise or rehabilitation programs.
Performance Benchmarking – identifying strengths and areas for development, supporting athletes and active individuals in achieving their goals.
Who Can Benefit?
Although ForceDecks are widely used with professional athletes, they are equally valuable for anyone recovering from injury, returning to sport, or seeking to optimise movement. From recreational runners and footballers to individuals rebuilding strength after surgery, the data helps tailor care to each person’s unique needs.
Why Objective Data Matters
Physiotherapy is about more than how you feel day-to-day. Objective tools like ForceDecks provide measurable feedback that complements a physiotherapist’s clinical expertise. This combination of data and professional assessment ensures your treatment and training are not just based on perception but also on reliable, real-time information.
The Physio Lab Approach
At The Physio Lab, our team combines technology like the VALD ForceDecks with hands-on physiotherapy, education, and personalised exercise plans. This integrated approach helps clients build resilience, prevent future injuries, and feel confident in their progress.
