English term or phrase: callipers
The patient is asked to estimate how wide their waist is by moving their hands in or out. The therapist then mirrors the size estimate using their own hands ( or callipers if available ). The patient is asked to walk into the gap made by the therapist's hands. If the patient has concerns about physical proximity callipers should be used.

disagree  Tomasz Poplawski: z pewnością w tym kontekście chodzi o przyrząd pomiarowy - przeczytaj zdanie - "mirrors the size estimate" - czyli pokazuje rękoma - albo takim wielkim cyrklem - sprawdzianem szczękowym - rozmiar talii wskazany rękoma przez pacjenta
