What is a Biomechanical Assessment
A biomechanical assessment is vital for understanding how your feet and lower limbs function. It can:
Diagnose Problems: Identify the underlying causes of foot and lower limb conditions, such as plantar fasciitis, shin splints, and bunions.
Customise Treatment: Tailor treatment plans to address your specific biomechanical issues, which may include orthotics, exercises, or footwear recommendations.
Preventative Care: Detect potential problems before they become painful or debilitating, allowing for proactive interventions to prevent future issues.
At Every Step Podiatry biomechanical assessments include the following components:
1. Gait Analysis: Evaluating your walking and running patterns to identify irregularities.
2. Foot Structure Examination: Assessing the alignment, arches, and range of motion of your feet.
3. Joint Range of Motion: Evaluating the flexibility and mobility of your lower limb joints.
4. Muscle Strength and Balance: Determining muscle strength and identifying imbalances in the lower limbs.
5. Pressure: Analysing pressure points during standing and walking.
