Wondering if you're truly ready to return to your sport?
Knee injuries like ACL, meniscus, or MPFL tears can sideline you for a while, but getting back safely is crucial. Jointli's Return to Sport Testing is designed to give you the clarity and confidence you need to make an informed decision.

A series of targeted assessments to track your progress and guide your next steps towards returning to sport.
Range, strength, balance, capacity, power, movement quality, confidence: we leave no stone unturned. Your test results inform your personalised rehab program and are shared with your surgeon and physiotherapist for a collaborative approach, ultimately leading to a faster and safer recovery with reduced risk of re-injury.
Our 3-Stage Guidance Testing ensures a smooth transition between each phase of your knee recovery. These tests objectively assess your ability to progress toward key milestone tasks, like:
STaGE 1
During the test we evaluate your knee clinical presentation, range of motion, gait and single leg balance & capacity following surgery. As well as establish a baseline for your journey back to sport or personal goals.
Post-Operative Patients
STaGE 2
This comprehensive test assesses your suitability to introduce sport-specific activities by looking at your dynamic balance, peak strength, running technique, and single leg power & capacity.
Post-Operative patients
Non-Operative patients
STaGE 3
This extensive test assessment your suitability to return to training by concurrently evaluating your dynamic balance, peak strength and power, multidirectional plyometric ability and psychological confidence.
Post-Operative Patients
Non-Operative Patients
The gold standard for isolated muscle assessment.
Isokinetic testing is a specialized assessment of muscle strength. It involves using equipment that maintains a constant speed regardless of how much effort is exerted, measuring the force output throughout the range of motion. This allows for precise evaluation of muscular performance at various speeds, aiding in rehabilitation and sports training.
The isokinetic test is one of the cornerstones of return to sport assessments, widely use across the world in both research and clinical practice. It is safe to perform for both healthy and patients who are out of the acute injury phase.
Prove your full fitness with a specialised test tailored to your sport and needs. We can liaise with you, your coach or rehab specialist to stress-test your limits.
