What Is The Need For Gait Analysis?

Gait is the process in which people move their body from one point to another. This means walking, running, skipping, hopping and any other similar activity. Gait analysis is a way to assess the pattern of these activities to highlight biomechanical abnormalities. What are Biomechanical Abnormalities? Averting injuries is a basic necessity to move around efficiently. Bodily joints must be capable of providing sufficient movement and muscles should produce sufficient force to generate an efficient gait cycle. If the joints are stiff (caused by muscle cramps), it can limit the range of motion, or weaken the muscles. Thus the body must find a way to compensate the problems, which leads to biomechanical abnormalities. Common biomechanical abnormalities: Oversupination Overpronation Hip hiking (lifting the hip on one side) Increased Q angle Pelvic tilt – can be either anterior, posterior or lateral Ankle equinus (limited ankle dorsif...

Biomechanical Podiatry Is Important For Sprinters

Going for a biomechanical assessment is very crucial for every sprinter or professional runner. Understanding the factors in sprint running is useful because of the critical value to performance. Significant factors include: technique, reaction time, force production, electromyographic (EMG) activity, neural factors and muscle structure. Generally, the reaction time of good athletes is short, but it does not correlate with the performance levels. Biomechanical podiatry service in Perth can analyse the technique of sprint during acceleration, deceleration of the velocity curve and constant velocity.  The helping hand to create massive force for sprinters At the beginning of the sprint run, it is important to produce great force or power and generate high velocity. During the phase of constant-speed, it is important to create increasing explosive power and efficiency to move further in the propulsion phase. This creates tremendous pressure on the foot and also the risk o...

It is an assessment of the total structure, its alignment and function of the feet and legs. What does Biomechanical Podiatry mean? P odiatric biomechanics is a particular sector of specialty podiatry with the help of licensed practitioners who are experts and treat the conditions affecting the foot, ankle and lower leg. Biomechanics deals with the forces that act against the body causing an interference with the biological structure and focuses on the movement of the ankle, the foot and ...

Treatment For Podiatry Service

P odiatry is the special therapy for diagnosing, managing and treating disorders and severe injuries of the feet, ankles, knees and their associated structures. B common example of complex human engineering is our feet and legs, which have 60 bones and an intricate network of joints, and ligaments. Improper structure or functionality of the foot can result in various injuries to the legs, knees, feet and even hips. A detailed understanding of the interaction between each of these structures is needed in order to make accurate diagnosis of one's foot and the entire leg. What to expect? Y our foot is the strongest foundation of your body. Thus it must be cared for through proper podiatric excellence . The treatment not just focuses on the existing complaint, but also the entire lower torso for improving the complete functioning to help lead a unique lifestyle.
