Biomechanical Assessments

A biomechanical assessment is a detailed evaluation of the way your body moves, focusing on the function and alignment of the feet and lower limbs. This assessment helps identify any abnormalities or issues that may be causing pain, discomfort, or affecting your overall mobility. Our podiatrists use these assessments to develop personalised treatment plans aimed at improving your movement and alleviating pain.

Why is a Biomechanical Assessment Important?

Diagnosis of Underlying Issues

Identifies the root cause of pain and discomfort in the feet, ankles, knees, hips, or lower back.

Prevention of Injuries

Detects and corrects biomechanical issues before they lead to injuries.

Enhanced Performance

Optimises movement patterns for athletes and active individuals to improve performance and reduce the risk of injury.

Customised Treatment Plans

Provides the information needed to create tailored treatment plans, including orthotics, exercises, and footwear recommendations.
