How do we perform a podiatrist walking analysis?
We perform the walking analysis not by watching you run, but by evaluating your biomechanics, your legs and your muscles.
- This is different than a running coach that can train you, this is instead a medical evaluation and treatment.
- This is also known as a gait analysis.
- This means we will assess your feet for bunions, hammer toes, over pronation or supination.
- We will assess which muscles are tight such as your foot muscles, your ankle and calf muscles, or your hamstring and thigh muscles.
- We can even evaluate your glutes, your lower back and your hips.
- This means getting the right shoes.
- This means getting the right orthotics.
- This means getting the right ankle braces.
- This means the right exercises, stretches and treatments.
- This means NOT wasting more time doing the wrong treatments!
