BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENT

Keep getting the same pain? Let's find out why.

A biomechanical assessment looks at how your feet, ankles, knees and hips work together, so we can find the cause of your pain, not just treat the symptoms.

Does this sound like you?

  • Your pain keeps coming back, no matter what you try
  • You've rested, stretched and changed shoes, but nothing has fixed it
  • Your shoes wear out unevenly or quickly
  • You've been told you have flat feet or 'bad feet'
  • Pain in your knees, hips or back seems to start from your feet

Book an assessment and find out what's right for you.

ABOUT THE SERVICE

What is a biomechanical assessment?

Biomechanics is simply how your body moves. If one part isn't moving as it should, other parts work harder to make up for it, and that extra strain often causes pain.

We look at your feet, ankles, knees, hips and lower back, both standing still and moving.

Once we understand how you move, we can fix the cause rather than just ease the symptoms.

WHEN IT MAY HELP

When might a biomechanical check be helpful?

A biomechanical assessment can help with:

  • Persistent heel or arch pain
  • Flat feet or fallen arches causing strain
  • Bunion pain or stiff big-toe joints
  • Knee, shin or hip pain when walking
  • Shoes that wear out unevenly or quickly
  • Pain that keeps coming back after treatment

Finds problems early, before they become bigger ones.

The starting point for custom orthotics, if you need them.
