Biomechanics and Sports Injury

Services
Biomechanical Assessment A special assessment which enables us to decide which is the most appropriate method to improve and support the way you walk.

GaitScan Analysis Complimentary to the Biomechanical assessment, this system analyses gait and detects unusual foot functions which may be affecting other parts of the body.

Squad Screening Lindsay is able to offer a screening service for clubs. This involves assessing and scanning all members of the squad whether injured or not and compiling a report and interpretation of findings for each individual. This can be used as a way of detecting those players where orthotic prescription may prevent injury. It is a good way of prioritising club expenditure in this area. In the longterm it can prove an effective way of reducing pressure on the whole medical team and can also prove very cost effective.
Video Gait Analysis Lindsay now has the equipment to carry out video gait analysis. She uses siliconcoach video analysis software which has the ability to capture video, measure angles and give rapid feedback to compare running technique before and after intervention of orthoses.
Orthotic Prescription Using her knowledge and experience Lindsay will design an orthotic prescription taking in to consideration the podiatric biomechanical assessment, the results of the Gaitscan, the sport you are involved in and your footwear. Currently she is prescribing orthosis manufactured by The Orthotic Group.
