Process
Report
During your first visit, we conduct a thorough patient history followed by a number of functional tests including quantifying any forefoot deformities. We then observe the plantar foot pressures by getting you to step on what is called a plantar scope.
Next a biomechanical assessment is done including a video gait analysis where we observe you walk on a treadmill and through a computerized system we measure precisely how much distortion there is in the foot and lower limb while you are in motion.If you are a runner, we can also perform the same procedure while you're running on a treadmill.
