VUE MOTION® Gait & Motion Analysis in Menlo Park & St. Louis
VUE MOTION® gait analysis at Lehman Joint and Performance is a physician-directed biomechanical assessment used to understand how movement patterns contribute to pain, injury risk, recovery, and athletic performance. Dr. Rick Lehman uses this analysis within a broader sports medicine and orthopedic framework to guide more precise treatment decisions for athletes and active adults.
Dr. Richard Lehman, a board-certified sports medicine orthopedist, uses AI-assisted video analysis and scientifically validated, patent-pending algorithms to assess and enhance your movement. From running gait to overhead throwing mechanics, Dr. Lehman captures and interprets the full scope of your biomechanics, delivering personalized insights to prevent injury, optimize recovery, and enhance performance.
What is Motion Analysis?
Motion analysis, also called movement or biomechanical motion analysis, uses 3D motion video capture technology to assess how your body moves in real time. This detailed, data-driven evaluation identifies mechanical inefficiencies, asymmetries, joint stress, and injury risks that can’t be seen with the naked eye.
We analyze:
- Gait cycle and stride symmetry
- Joint alignment and load distribution
- Muscular compensation patterns
- Sport-specific motion deviations (e.g., running, throwing or hitting)
- Balance issues and fall risk
All assessments are non-invasive, completed by Dr. Lehman and his biomechanical team, and designed to provide personalized, actionable insights.
Why Choose Lehman Joint and Performance
At Lehman Joint and Performance, we combine cutting-edge technology with decades of clinical expertise to evaluate and enhance how you move. Our VUE MOTION® Gait and Motion Analysis brings elite-level performance data into a clinical setting, delivering clarity where traditional assessments fall short.
“Using high-speed, AI-assisted video capture in real time, I assess your gait, back, shoulder, hip, and arm motion directly in the office. Through proprietary algorithms and biomechanical modeling, we precisely measure your joint angles, femoral and humeral alignment, shoulder and hip girdle mechanics, and spinal rotation.”
“This data allows us to identify even subtle abnormalities that contribute to pain, limit performance, or increase risk of injury. Whether you’re an athlete, a weekend warrior, or focused on maintaining lifelong mobility, I provide a personalized strategy to reduce pain, enhance performance, and extend your functional lifespan—on the field and in daily life.”
– Dr. Richard Lehman
What is VUE MOTION®?
VUE MOTION® is a state-of-the-art, AI-assisted video analysis platform designed to capture and interpret human movement with exceptional precision. It translates real-time motion into quantifiable data, allowing me to evaluate the biomechanics of your gait, posture, and joint function with far greater depth than traditional visual assessments or static imaging.
Where traditional exams stop at observation, VUE MOTION® provides high-resolution, frame-by-frame analysis of how your body moves, highlighting asymmetries, inefficiencies, and compensatory patterns that may not yet be causing symptoms but can significantly impact performance, recovery, or longevity.

Frequently asked questions
Trusted by many
Why did all of this take so long, you might ask... Because he IS that good! That's how many people are waiting to see him!
Thank you Dr Lehman for working your magic on me and affording me the quality of life that I have been able to enjoy for all these years.
Very regretfully, I have taken your help for granted and probably overworked it a bit too much, and now likely will have to have more work done. Even more regretfully, as I have relocated, it may no longer be feasible for me to return.
He takes the time to explain things so you are comfortable and understand. I think this is why the wait. He is a genuinely sincere nice man. Who wants the best for you.
I am very active, he has always got me fixed back up!
You won’t find a better doctor or person!!
