Biomechanical Podiatrist
Andrew Root qualified at the "London Foot Hospital", assesses the most efficient position for feet to allow for optimum walking or running positions.This involves stopping the feet inrolling or out rolling using bespoke foot orthotics. Bespoke orthotics correct body alignment and improve shock absorption.
Moulded Orthotics
Moulded Orthotics are used in the treatment of many body problems such as, foot problems like, in rolling feet, (pronation) and less obviously connected problems like, ankle injuries, knee pains, hip conditions and back pain or injury.
Biomechanical Assessment
In a biomechanical assessment I assess both standing, sitting and non weight bearing positions of the foot joints, in relation to alignment and how pressure is transferred into and through the feet, ankles, knees, hips and back.
