Proven experience
Established in 2010 Optimus Health Group was founded with a dream of providing community athletes with the same level of physiotherapy and strength & conditioning access as elite athletes.
Over the past 10 years we have provided physiotherapy and sports trainer services to over 200 teams in Football, Soccer and Rugby Union as well as being trusted by Xavier College, Scotch College, Melbourne Grammar, Brighton Grammar and St Kevins College to provide First Aid and Physiotherapy to various sporting codes.
Since 2010 our caseload has rapidly expanded to also include a wide range of general population patients.
At Optimus Health our goals are to provide the same level of service and expertise to all our patients, no matter their injury or reason for surgery. Everyone deserves to get back to their passions, work or sport pain free.

ForceFrame
The new standard in strength testing.
Faster than a handheld dynamometer.
More accurate than a blood pressure cuff.
Measure adduction and abduction in the same test.
Tests strength in a range of unique positions (including supine neutral, supine (60°), supine (90°/90°), as well as unilateral variations of these test types. The central crossbar also rotates, to allow even more testing possibilities, including seated (90°/90°), seated internal/external hip rotation and internal/external shoulder rotation. The outer paddles can also be adjusted to fit larger athletes or rotated 90° for even more testing options, including prone shoulder extension, cervical flexion, and cervical extension.
Force Decks
ForceDecks provides instantaneous feedback on neuromuscular performance and asymmetries for a range of different jumps and isometric tests. Unique auto-detection and one-click analysis allows data to be collected and processed in under a minute - something that would have traditionally taken hours. This instantaneous capture and analysis allows for quick testing, immediate feedback and accelerated decision-making on large numbers of athletes or patients.
Tests auto-detected by ForceDecks include:
+ Countermovement Jump (CMJ)
+ Single-Leg Jump
+ Squat Jump
+ Drop Jump
+ Single-Leg Drop Jump
+ Land and Hold
+ Hop and Return
+ Hop Test
+ Isometric Tests (e.g. Isometric Mid-Thigh Pull)
