Read the latest press release from one of our longtime members, DARI Motion, about their agreement with Wichita State University Athletics, to provide musculoskeletal health and human motion assessmentnts from WSU student-athletes:
WICHITA, Kan. – Wichita State Athletics has partnered with DARI Motion to provide musculoskeletal health and human motion assessments for Shocker student-athletes. The baseball and softball teams both had scans completed on each student-athlete this fall, while the other sports will take place in the spring and summer.
"Providing a first-class student-athlete development experience remains one of our three primary core values," said Senior Associate Athletics Director and Senior Woman Administrator Sarah Adams. "Greg Giefer and his DARI Motion team - through this unique and creative partnership - offer high-tech and innovative solutions to transform and modernize strength/conditioning and sports medicine support for all Shocker student-athletes."
DARI Motion provides a fast, automated platform that will analyze a patient's motion-health data and provides accurate insights to physical therapists, physicians, and athletic trainers in hospitals, clinics, training facilities, and wellness centers. The only FDA-cleared and patented system for analyzing motion health, DARI Motion uses multiple cameras to capture thousands of data points to build out a full biomechanical profile of human movement. It gives providers the tools they need to create an action plan that will improve an athlete's performance, aid in patient's recovery progress, and protect against injuries.
DARI Motion can be found in numerous organizations across the country, including eight locations within the Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS), the #1 ranked hospital in the US for orthopedics. Professional sports teams, athletes, and athletic trainers are using the system to increase performance and reduce injury. The NFL recently implemented a program that is leveraging DARI to minimize soft tissue injuries along with keeping their players healthy and on the field.
"If you are not assessing, you're guessing and DARI provides you with the right results—right away," said Greg Giefer, DARI Motion's Chief of Sales.
