DO YOU SUFFER FROM FOOT, KNEE OR BACK PAIN?

BOOK YOUR FOOT & GAIT SCAN NOW!*

A comprehensive gait assessment allows your Wellbeing Coach to determine if your feet are having a negative impact on the way that you stand, walk, run and move especially if you have foot related problems such as knee, hip and back pain.

The assessment includes a foot scan using the GaitScan Computerized Analysis.

A report will be generated by the GaitScan software that your coach will review and recommend a treatment plan.

Performance custom orthotics may be recommended as a non-invasive treatment of foot-related problems such as knee, hip, and back pain.

They also may be helpful in treating bunions, corns, hammertoes, sore arches, plantar fasciitis, sore ankles, shin splints and more.
