The Spinal Mouse is a scientifically proven, accurate, reliable and repeatable measurement of back posture and mobility that is quick and easy to perform. The examination gives you information about your posture, back mobility and back posture control.
For Whom
The examination is suitable for people with musculoskeletal problems, postural examination clients, athletes and physically active people.
Implementation
The examinations are carried out by physiotherapy students working at TARMO. The test takes about 30 minutes. The back examination is done using the Spinal Mouse device, and the client gets to take home a written report of the results. The students analyse the results and provide treatment guidance when necessary.
The students who carry out the examination will pick you up from the information desk in the main lobby of building E at Tikkarinne campus (Tikkarinne 9) at the agreed time. Parking permits for the guest parking lot in the yard are available from the information desk if needed.
