Familiar Tests. Deeper Insights.

The best tools don’t replace the clinician — they amplify their expertise. 

Aspire Motion was built with that philosophy in mind. With a single, lightweight sensor that snaps onto the patient’s waist in seconds, therapists can extract new objective data on balance, mobility, and strength from familiar assessments like the Timed Up and Go (TUG), 4 stage balance, or sit-to-stand tests. The result: a richer picture of each patient’s abilities and clearer guidance for targeted interventions. 

Take the classic Timed Up and Go (TUG). It’s quick, simple, and widely used, measuring how long it takes someone to stand up from a chair, walk 3 meters, turn around, walk back, turn and sit down. 

With Aspire Motion, therapists gain far more than just total time. The system automatically breaks down the duration of each phase: standing up, walking, turning, and sitting while also capturing detailed movement data such as the force exerted to stand, and gait characteristics.

Similar objective insights extend to other assessments: how much a person sways when standing still, how stable they are performing sit-to-stand repetitions, how much power drives each step and how steady the person is throughout each stride. These metrics provide clear, measurable, and trackable indicators of functional progress.

Aspire Motion integrates naturally into existing workflows, adding insights without adding steps. By quantifying what the eye can’t see, it helps uncover early signs of neurological changes, muscle weakness, or recovery trends that might otherwise go unnoticed. All without the complexity or investment of force plates, pressure-sensing walkways, and optical systems that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars.

For clinics, the benefits are twofold: smoother workflows and stronger patient engagement. Patients can see their progress in tangible ways, while therapists gain objective data that supports clinical decisions, strengthens documentation, and enhances communication with insurers or referring physicians.

When technology feels like a natural part of practice — not an extra step — it doesn’t just make therapy more efficient. It makes it more human, more informed, and more rewarding for everyone involved. Aspire Motion transforms everyday assessments into opportunities for smarter, more personalized therapy.
