MOVEMENT LABORATORY
Measuring instead of guessing: movement analysis, performance diagnostics and the individualised training we work with.
Performance optimisation and rehabilitation through diagnostics-driven training
Modern sports medicine uses scientific evidence and regular diagnostics to make everyday fitness and athletic performance systematic and measurable.
The right package for your goal
Return-to-sport process
Back into sport after an injury or a longer break.
Return to Activity (RTA): back into training
Suitable for checking basic physical function and load capacity for resuming activity after an injury or treatment.
- Duration:
- approx. 1 hour
Included:
- Strength tests
- Mobility and coordination analysis
- First dynamic load tests
- Check of muscular activation
Goal: To assess the physical prerequisites for safely resuming everyday activity and build-up training.
Return to Sport (RTS): back into the sport
For the differentiated assessment of sport-specific abilities on the way back to the usual athletic load.
- Duration:
- approx. 2 hours
Included:
- Strength tests
- Jump and hop tests
- Agility and change-of-direction tests
- Reaction and coordination tests
- If required: EMG
Goal: To check sport-specific load capacity and to recognise possible deficits before returning to the sport.
Return to Competition (RTC): back into competition
For the further assessment of complex and highly dynamic demands before returning to competitive sport.
- Duration:
- approx. 3 hours
Included:
- Highly dynamic load tests
- Reaction and decision-making in motion
- Complex movement and decision situations
- Movement and performance analysis under fatigue
- Performance and readiness analysis at competition level
Goal: To assess competition-specific load capacity in detail.

Consultation, training and therapy
Clarify questions, get interdisciplinary advice and take new training impulses with you. Ideally on the basis of a diagnostic session: then we can work specifically on your individual weaknesses and draw up a training plan together with you.
Individual training sessions
Freely combinable, with or without a package.
On offer:
- EMG biofeedback training as part of individual training planning (approx. 30 minutes)
- Skillcourt training (approx. 30 minutes)
- Isotonic strength training (approx. 30 minutes)
- App-guided training plan design (approx. 60 minutes)
Starter package
For getting started, with an individual analysis and a training session built on it.
- Scope:
- Analysis + 1 training session
RTS package
For everyone who wants not only to learn their results but to work on them across several targeted training sessions.
- Scope:
- Analysis + 3 training sessions
These are self-pay services; prices depend on package, age group and performance level. A cancellation fee of 30 % applies if an appointment is cancelled less than 48 hours beforehand.

Frequently asked questions
Who can use the movement laboratory?
The service is aimed at recreational and competitive athletes, junior and youth athletes, and other physically active people. Clubs and coaches are welcome to ask about individual arrangements.
Do I have to be a patient of Sportklinik Freiburg already?
No. In principle anyone can book an appointment at the movement laboratory.
What happens during an appointment?
We begin by discussing your goals and your individual starting point. The appropriate tests follow. We evaluate the results together, and they form the basis for tailored recommendations and possible training measures.
Will my health insurance cover the cost?
Whether and to what extent private health insurers cover the cost depends on your individual tariff. With statutory health insurers a decision is needed in each individual case. In any case, please clarify cover with your insurer before the appointment.
Can I track my progress?
Yes. Results can be documented and compared with later measurements, which makes changes and any further training needs traceable.
