Video Gait Analysis in Darwin

Our video gait analysis examines walking or running patterns to identify irregularities. This detailed assessment helps guide treatment recommendations, aiming to improve posture and reduce pain.

Comprehensive Gait Analysis

At Swan Podiatry and Orthotics, serving those in Darwin and Katherine, we understand that analysing your movement patterns is essential to addressing your physical needs. That's why we offer personalised video gait analysis as a core service.

This cutting-edge technology captures your movement in real-time, using advanced software to evaluate your walking or running technique. Conducted on a treadmill, the analysis provides a detailed view of your gait cycle, offering invaluable insights into how your body moves. By recording your movements, we can thoroughly assess subtle joint actions that are often missed when observed with the naked eye, particularly during dynamic activities like running.

The ability to replay your footage in slow motion allows us to pinpoint areas of inefficiency or deviation in your gait cycle, whether it's overpronation, limited ankle flexibility or hip movement asymmetry. This detailed evaluation helps our team identify underlying issues that may affect your comfort and movement.

Whether you're an athlete seeking to enhance performance or someone looking to improve mobility, this service helps to provide a clear understanding of your body's biomechanics. To book an appointment at our Darwin or Katherine clinic, call us on 0428 976 360 today.
