UW Health Sports Rehabilitation uses Stroke View, a four-camera system that allows for simultaneous underwater and over-water video capture from multiple angles. Stroke View has a 22-inch monitor on the pool deck for immediate review and feedback. This comprehensive biomechanical analysis allows for identification of stroke faults that may be causing pain/injury or limiting performance.
Swimming Injury Evaluations
Biomechanical video swimming evaluation is used in combination with musculoskeletal examination to address injuries and performance issues. The injury evaluation includes:
- A review of swimming training, injury and performance
- A physical examination including strength, flexibility, posture and alignment
- Clinical testing of injuries
- Video analysis of swimming biomechanics
- A treatment plan which may include drills to correct stroke flaws, training recommendations, and/or exercises to normalize strength, flexibility and posture
All test findings will be reviewed immediately following the examination.

- A screening examination of strength, flexibility and posture that may affect swimming biomechanics
- Video analysis of swimming biomechanics
