Any abnormality in the function and alignment of the lower limbs can lead to injury, lower limb pain, lower back pain, abnormal walking patterns and uncomfortable shoe wear. 

​

A comprehensive biomechanical assessment helps to determine the underlying cause for impaired foot function, callus/corn patterns and identify how the body compensates for these irregularities. 

​

In a biomechanical assessment your podiatrist will:

• Analyse and explain your foot posture and gait pattern

• Review your current footwear and provide advice 

• Examine the flexibility, mobility and strength of your joints and muscles

• Discuss lifestyle and physical elements that impact on your legs and feet

• Assess and discuss your specific symptom/s and concern/s as well as give advice on posture improvement, stretching exercises, and other relevant treatment options suitable for your specific needs. 

​

Depending on your assessment findings, we can discuss conservative treatment options through to surgical intervention options.
