WVAS partners with Federation University to offer musculoskeletal screenings to all WVAS athletes throughout the year. Students undertaking post-graduate study in a Master of Clinical Exercise Physiology at Fed Uni are supervised by Dr. Deb Pascoe & Dr. Warrick Chilton, whilst delivering the screens and when creating exercise recommendations.
Athletes are put through a specific and detailed assessment of posture, range of movement, balance, flexibility and control of muscles, skeletal and muscular imbalances, as well as a thorough analysis of joints and nerves, specific to each sport.
The musculoskeletal screens are then provided to WVAS Strength and Conditioning Coaches to be considered when creating the athletes S&C program.
