Biomechanics is the study and analysis of gait and human movement. Here at Podiatry Plus we observe patients for any alterations in the optimum sequence of events between the foot, the lower limb, and the rest of the body during the walking (running, cycling, skiing etc) phase. Deviations from the optimum, can lead to heel pain, foot strain, ankle, knee, hip, lower back and neck pain.
During your assessment we use the latest technology to collect data and provide the most detailed biomechanical analysis available within minutes and assists in involving you in your assessment.
With the help of orthotic devices, we can help you to walk, run and Live the Life you Love without pain. Suitably qualified professionals like us are best placed to advise you on these issues, and because we are not a ‘retailer’ the patient is always our first priority. We only offer advice based on a clinical need, not a sales target.
If you plan on attending for a biomechanical examination please remember to bring;
- Your favourite/everyday shoes
- Your running/sports shoes
- Any previous/old orthoses
- A pair of shorts
At the end of your assessment a full written report will be made available to you, which will include all findings and may include copies of images taken as part of the assessment.
After your My Injury consultation your podiatrist may suggest that you would benefit from wearing an orthotic.
Orthotics are prescription insoles which stabilise the foot holding it in the ideal position. Re-positioning the foot alters the angles at which the foot strikes the surface. Wearing orthotics can improve corns and calluses, ankle sprains and knee, hip and back pain.
At Podiatry Plus we have the facility to manufacture our own custom orthotics in house to ensure that you have exactly what you need to get you back to Living the Life You Love.
At Podiatry Plus we treat a number of sports injuries with various therapies including – biomechanical assessments, orthotic prescriptions, muscle stretching exercises, strapping and low level laser treatment.
For a routine podiatry appointment the only requirement is that nail varnish is removed prior. We’d also advise that you attend in the shoes that you wear most often, so we can assess if they may be contributing to any specific foot problem.
For a biomechanics appointment we ask that you come in (or change into) shorts so that we can assess your lower limbs properly and –
– Your favourite/everyday shoes
– Your running/sports shoes
– Any previous/old orthoses
