A podiatric examination helps identify the causes of foot, knee and back pain, which often stem from improper foot alignment. During the assessment, the specialist evaluates posture, gait, foot positioning and joint mobility. Using a specialised device—a podoscope—they analyse foot loading while standing and walking, helping detect potential orthopaedic issues.
What the Examination Assesses:
• Foot alignment and gait pattern – evaluation of posture and weight distribution while standing.
• Joint mobility and ligament condition – identification of overload or weakness in the lower limbs.
• Orthopaedic conditions – podoscope analysis reveals deformities and improper foot loading.
