Biomechanical gait analysis and custom insoles
Do you have pain in your feet, knees, hips or back and don't know why? Often the answer lies in how you walk. We carry out a biomechanical gait analysis of how you stand and walk to find the real source of the problem, not just the symptoms.
What is a biomechanical gait analysis?
A biomechanical analysis is a complete study of how your feet work when standing and moving. The foot is the base that supports the whole body: if your foot support is wrong, that imbalance travels upwards and can cause knee, hip or back pain, as well as injuries that keep recurring for no obvious reason. By analysing your gait we detect these imbalances and can correct them at the root.
How we do it at Clínica San Pedro
Custom insoles: a solution made for you
When the analysis detects incorrect foot support, the solution is usually a custom insole (foot orthosis). Using your gait data, we make an insole exclusively for your foot and your problem. It corrects how you load your foot, redistributes pressure and eliminates pain, both day to day and during sport. The difference from a generic pharmacy insole is huge: a shop insole is the same for everyone, while ours is designed from your specific analysis. That is why it is far more effective and actually solves the problem instead of masking it.
Why have your analysis done here?
Because we don't just sell you an insole: we analyse your case in depth, explain what is happening and design a tailored solution. And as a multidisciplinary clinic, if your pain also has a muscular or joint component, we coordinate treatment with our physiotherapy team for a complete recovery. We treat the cause, not just the symptom.
