After visual examination of your feet, we use the gait scan for more comprehensive examination. The software has many features and capabilities which makes manufacturing custom foot orthotics extremely accurate. The gait scan analyzes static (the way you stand) form and dynamic (the way you walk or run) form of your feet, together this will provide a great understanding of how your feet are performing. This is extremely helpful in finding and correcting the problem areas in your feet and gait, knees and hips. The gait scan is very efficient and critical in making custom foot orthotics in Vancouver. |  | | By walking on the gait plate (dynamic), we collect and visualize data on pressure points, pronation, supination, and toe in/out, flattening of foot arches, plantar pressure, during heel strike, foot flat, mid stance and toe off phase of gait.
