Bio-Mechanical Assessment & Gait Analysis
The arrangement of the bones, intrinsic muscles of the foot, extrinsic foot muscles in the leg and presence of powerful ligamements all work together to maintain a strong, stable foundation. Weaknesses in the structures maintaining foot integrity can result in problems such as fallen arches.
Hypomobility = stiff and inflexible
Hypermobility = excessively flexible
Everyone fits somewhere within the spectrum. Extremes of either tend to have different kinds of problems.
Our specialised comprehensive Bio-Mechanical assessment looks at 44 individual components of lower limb function and structure. This assessment has been in development over 20 years and focuses on the important tests in an efficient manner!!
