I’m exploring if data on the characteristics of how we move reveals a metric of the efficacy of manual therapy treatments. Being able to use this kind of data could help move the field forward by giving us solid proof of how well therapies are doing.

Joining in will take just a little bit of your time \u2014 just a minute or two before and after your appointment. In that time, you’ll need to walk 6-8 steps while we gather acceleration data from your gait.
