Musculoskeletal and Biomechanics
It is uncommon for our left and right sides to be perfectly symmetrical. Furthermore, most of us have minor irregularities, like a twist in the pelvis, a bowed leg, or legs of different lengths. The Outcome?
As we stand, walk, or run, our bodies adjust and compensate for these imperfections. These compensations strain muscles, joints, ligaments, and tendons as they adapt to abnormal or compromised movements. Eventually, these structures may become inflamed or injured. This page is dedicated to addressing muscle pain in the lower limbs . For general chiropody services, please click on the General Podiatry tab located at the top of the screen.
Our Services
If you are experiencing foot or ankle pain, a musculoskeletal assessment aims to evaluate and diagnose the issue whenever feasible. During the assessment, we will gather a comprehensive history of the problem and symptoms and discuss your desired outcomes.
In many instances, we can create a treatment plan during the initial appointment for you to continue at home. Occasionally, additional investigations like a biomechanical assessment or laser therapy may be recommended.
Musculoskeletal Initial Appointment
The biomechanical assessment with Gait and Motion Technology examines lower limb function to pinpoint potential sources of discomfort in the heel, foot, knee, and back.
A customised treatment strategy will be created, which could involve Phitts Custom Orthotics.
The assessment centres on utilising Gait and Motion technology for a comprehensive evaluation and to develop a treatment plan.
This service is advisable for individuals aiming to sustain or enhance their activity levels, whether dealing with current concerns or aiming to prevent future issues.
