Gait Analysis
Gait Analysis
Gait analysis is a comprehensive evalutation of how an individual stands and walks. By carrying out gait analysis, we are able to identify the source of muscle, nerve or skeletal problems that could be resulting in pain or other issues.
Once we have identified the source of your injury or foot problem, our skilled team of podiatrists can create a tailored plan to help treat and manage your pain.
At Pioneer, we use the latest technology to asses your walking or running style. Gait Analysis carries out a frame by frame analysis of your walking or running style, which in turn makes it easier for us to identify any biochemical faults, enabling us to diagnose your foot problem or injury properly and therefore provide the correct treatment to get you back to your usual activity as quick as possible.
Whether you or a loved one is dealing with podiatry concerns, we’re here to help.
FAQs
One of the most common conditions podiatrists treat is bunions (a bony bulge on the outside of the big toe that causes pain, swelling, and limited movement of the toe). It is recommended to visit your local podiatrist if your foot care routine is not alleviating any foot and ankle symptoms. As we get older, an annual foot health check is as important as a sight or hearing test. Conditions like diabetes or circulatory problems can all be picked up by looking at the feet, and common problems like corns, cracked skin, and ingrown toenails can be successfully treated. Even digital deformities such as bunions can be prevented at an early stage or managed effectively at Pioneer Private Care, so the best advice is to have an initial consultation with a member of the team.
