# How does the MAT Assessment approach differ from other approaches?

Bring research into practice

MAT is renowned around the world for developing easy-to-perform objective assessments that measure the way your clients and patients move in key capacities for movement such as flexibility, balance, strength etc rather than grading movements based on a subjective score.

As a result, you can feel confident when using the MAT Assessment approach that you will be able to set accurate baselines, track progression over time in your re-assessments and set key milestones for your client's physical progression.
