Gait Analysis

Sydney Physiotherapy offers the injured runner comprehensive gait analysis using a low impact treadmill and digital video camera.

Running injuries can be reproduced and analysed in a clinical setting. The digital video provides high definition slow motion and still images. The physiotherapist can analyse the movement and show the patient how problems such as knee pain or 'shin splints' occur.

Foot orthotics may be prescribed in the management of some conditions. The orthotics can be moulded by our physiotherapists, or referal to a podiatrist can be arranged if greater correction is required.
