Biomechanical Assessments

Biomechanical assessment is an assessment of your lower limb function, looking for any abnormalities that may cause pain or discomfort.

Biomechanics is the tool that understands human movement and used to enhance athletic performance and prevent injury.

Many of us will have mild deformities, such as bowed leg, one leg longer than the other, or torsion in the pelvis. While this may not appear to have a detrimental impact, the body must compensate for these abnormalities when we stand, walk, or run. Additional problems such as very high or low foot aches, limb length discrepancy, or a sports injury can result in compensatory movement when extra stress is placed upon joints, muscles, and ligaments.
