Gait Analysis

Gait Analysis & Sports Biomechanics in Leicester

Chiropody, and of course, podiatry in Leicester at Head to Toe, involves assessment, gait analysis, diagnosis and treatment of abnormalities of the foot and lower limb. We offer professional treatment, advice and care of foot problems. We also help determine which orthotics need to be used whether standard issue or custom made orthotics for you.

At Head to Toe Treatments, our comprehensive gait analysis service is dedicated to assessing and diagnosing abnormalities in the foot and lower limb. Our Leicester clinic integrates both static and walking evaluations, including advanced FOOTscan analysis (performed both barefoot and in-shoe), footwear examinations, and functional movement assessments. This meticulous process helps pinpoint subtle issues that lead to biomechanical problems of the foot and other related challenges.

We offer static and walking assessments that include :

  • FOOTscan analysis barefoot and in shoe.
  • Footwear specific examination.
  • Functional movement analysis.
  • Clinical Gait Analysis
  • INSOLES or SPECIAL ORTHOTICS – Off the shelf Custom made orthotics.

 This will depend on the extent of your troubles and your budget. The insoles and orthotics here at Head to Toe are beneficial for sporting injuries and everyday use. A detailed examination by our podiatrist will help in rehabilitation and achieving our goals of getting you pain free.
Whether you are young or not, we will get you back on your feet to continue your sport. It is a simple fact that men and women who enjoy sports will suffer more foot-related sports injuries.

 

Clinical Gait Analysis

In addition to the comprehensive evaluations described above, our clinic also offers advanced running gait analysis designed to detect even the most subtle deviations in foot biomechanics. Our experts in Leicester use high-resolution assessments to gather detailed data, pinpointing issues that may contribute to long-term biomechanical foot problems.

By scrutinising both static and dynamic movement patterns, we are able to recommend effective orthotic options that support proper alignment and overall foot health. This meticulous approach not only aids in the recovery of sports-related injuries but also supports everyday activities, ensuring that every step you take is both safe and comfortable.

Our clinical gait analysis collects quantitative data to understand the underlying causes of gait abnormalities. The physical demands of sports—such as twisting, jumping, and rapid directional changes—place considerable stress on the feet and overall biomechanics. In our running gait analysis, we closely monitor each phase of your stride, from initial contact through toe-off, to identify any irregularities. This information is critical for addressing biomechanical foot problems that can result in sports injuries and everyday discomfort.

 

 Orthotics & Insoles

After a detailed evaluation, our team assists you in choosing the most appropriate orthotic devices for your needs. We offer a range of options including off-the-shelf insoles and custom-made orthotics. These devices are designed to improve alignment, support proper foot biomechanics, and aid in the rehabilitation of injuries. Our approach is grounded in thorough assessments and proven methods that have helped many patients regain pain-free mobility.

The service at Head To Toe is great. I have been twice now and also introduced my mother and daughter to the practice to have their feet done. Very polite, friendly customer service and an excellent "beside...(chair-side)" manner. Thank you very much.

I had hurt my back last week, so went to get an hour-long deep tissue massage today to ease the pain. It was exactly what I needed! I feel great now, and it was great to destress. The staff were so nice, friendly and professional. I also got an appointment on the same day that I rang, which was great! I will definitely be going back in a month or so for another massage. I would highly recommend.

After two steroids and years of back and shoulder pain, I woke in tears this morning and knew I had to see a professional - I couldn't take the pain any more. I found Head to Toe after a simple google search and called - treatments were explained and an appointment booked today, as I was in so much pain. I have just had a deep tissue massage and I can honestly say, I feel as though I am floating. I can't remember what it feels like not to be in pain every day, and yet right now, I feel nearly pain free. I can move! I've booked another appointment for two weeks time, and I'm pretty confident that my progression to a pain free and painkiller/drug free life is ahead of me, my only regret is not contacting Head to Toe sooner! Highly recommended.

My wife recommended Head to Toe as she has been having treatment for verrucae. Making an appointment was simple and I was greeted warmly. Despite having extremely ticklish feet, I was kept chatting throughout the treatment of my toenail infection such that I barely noticed my feet were being touched. The treatment was explained clearly and I left having made a follow-up appointment.I was impressed by the friendliness and relaxed atmosphere of the place and staff.

I had to make an emergency appointment for a family member who was in a lot of pain with his toe. We were able to get an appointment with Raj on the day we rang. As soon as we walked in we were greeted by a lovely lady at reception who was very helpful. Raj is a genuinely nice man who clearly takes pride in what he does for a living and he managed to resolve the problem. Amazing place, would recommend to anyone.

Excellent podiatry and customer service throughout. I would highly recommend attending this center if you suffer from an ingrown toenail and are forced to wait long periods of time for NHS treatment. The value for money is amazing and, to my knowledge, the best in Leicestershire.

I was given a voucher as a Christmas present for Head to Toe, what a wonderful gift! I opted for Reflexology with Lisa and cannot recommend her highly enough. I cannot understand how she can tell so much about my health through my feet! She didn't ask me any questions but picked up all my health concerns. After the treatment, I slept for eight hours for the first time in weeks. Amazing! A truly relaxing experience. Guess what's on my Christmas and birthday list??

I discovered this clinic by a simple google search. They provide an excellent service. I suffered from an advanced flat feet condition which have caused alot of back and ankle pain. The tailored insoles Raj prescribed for me are life savers! He was very helpful when I asked him about what is the best insole material which causes less heat and which shoes i should buy. He also recommended stretching exercises and explained how gradualy I need to get my feet used to the insoles. Now I can stand for many hours and I can even run yaaaaay!!!Me and my partner had also a 1 hour deep tissue massage with Alex and Agnes. Alex and Agnes are incredibly professional and provided us with best massage sessions. We restored our posture after this session and alot of pressure and pain in shoulders and ankles were released.

Found this practice from a search in the NHS choices site and I'm so pleased I did.I'd been trying to manage an ingrown toenail for some time and had got to the point where it was becoming painful on a daily basis to the extent I had convinced myself I might need a procedure to remove or reduce the size of the nail.I got a convenient appointment time, after emailing the practice initially, with Raj who was professional and friendly (as were all of the staff there) with good advice for maintaining healthy feet.I've booked again and I'm even considering their massage service.Highly recommended 6 out of 5 stares**they will know it's a typo �

I wanted a deep tissue massage and that is exactly what I got. Stan was brilliant. He really got into the knotted muscles in my back. I would definitely recommend Head to Toe, with friendly reception staff as well.

Fantastic place. Great service and a great 1 hour deep tissue massage. Stan was very good and really understood what I needed. Will definitely be going back. Thanks again.

The customer service from start to finish was absolutely unremarkable! I was treated as an emergency close to closing times on the same day as calling to make an appointment. This really was appreciated as I was in pain but this service wasn't necessary yet was given without the slightest bother. This then continued at my followup which again was efficient and outstanding in terms of service and clinical expertise. I am truly grateful for the team Jay and Raj for sorting the above out to allow me to be able to walk without pain and climb a charity climb up Mount Kilimanjaro again from two days after seeing them! Thanks,Zarna.
