Gait Analysis and Biomechanical Assessment

Moon Boot West Lakes Podiatry

Gait Analysis and Biomechanical Assessment

  • Our Podiatrists are skilled in analysing your body’s mechanics and the way you walk, stand or run.
  • Our Podiatrists not only look at the way your feet function during standing, walking or running, but also your whole body, especially your knees and hips.
  • We assess the range of motion through your feet, ankles, knees and hips whilst non-weightbearing, and use this in conjunction with what we see whilst weightbearing to identify why you may be experiencing pain or discomfort.
  • Using video gait analysis, our Podiatrists are able to capture the way you walk or run, and use that footage to educate you on your gait and why you are experiencing pain.
  • Outdoor run? Treadmill run? Treadmill incline walk? At the clinic we are able to recreate most environments you walk or run in.
