What is GAIT SCAN​™

​At Physio Labs our physiotherapists use a state of the force plate called a GAITSCAN™ linked to a software program that allows us to accurately detect any abnormal foot function as you stand and walk or run across the force plate.

This coupled with a thorough history and physical examination and biomechanical assessment by the Physiotherapist helps us to determine if your foot function is related to your specific problem. Abnormal foot function can result in common conditions such as;
​​
  • Foot pain
  • Heel pain
  • Plantar fasciitis
  • Achilles tendonitis
  • Shin splints
  • Bunions
  • Knee pain
  • Hip pain
  • Low back pain
  • Severs syndrome
  • Arthritis foot pain
  • Diabetic feet
  • & more

CUSTOM ORTHOTICS - How do I know if I need orthotics?

We use a combination of clinical experience and Gaitscan technology to decide if you need orthotics including:​
  • Examination by and experienced Physiotherapist which considers biomechanics and factors contributing to your pain and the role for treatment and corrective exercises.
  • The Gaitscan results which may indicate abnormal foot mechanics which contribute to your pain.
  •  Interpretation of your history of injury and functional requirements including footwear.

​If we identify abnormal foot function that correlates to your symptoms, we can use the Gaitscan data to help prescribe custom foot orthotics to correct the problem.

If you would like custom orthotics considered as part of your physiotherapy session, please mention this at the time of booking your initial consult.
