Foot
Assessment (Pedograph)
Have
your ever given thought to the shape of your feet?
With
over 50% of people inheriting high or very high arches, it’s
likely that you may have high arches and not know about it until
problems arise.
Have
your feet assessed by a footwear specialist
By
starting with a simple pedograph of your feet, the foot care
specialist can determine the shape of your arch, and whether
standing pressure changes that shape.
A
pedograph requires the individual to stand on a small slide,
producing a carbon copy of the foot on paper underneath. No mess,
quick and easy – the density of carbon print demonstrates
clearly any areas of increased pressure when standing.
Assessment
of ankles, knees and hips also reveals anomalies such as leg
length differences, knock knees and weakened or pronating ankles.
Armed
with information about the shape of your under foot arch, and any
changes in the shape of your lower limb joints, a Medical grade
footwear practitioner, can
confidently and accurately prescribe medical grade footwear or
orthoses, to meet your individual needs.
Have
your feet and footwear assessed
and
walk with confidence! |
