Consultations
A Consultation Unlike Any Other.
At Gait3D Clinic, our assessment process is not borrowed from a textbook. It has been refined over 25 years of specialist clinical practice into a comprehensive, multi-layered examination combing modern tech that goes far beyond what most clinics offer.
The assessment lasts approximately two hour. Our highly experienced podiatrist will take a thorough medical history and conduct a comprehensive physical and posturology examination, drawing on years of expertise. The insights gained from this biomechanical assessment form the foundation of your personalised treatment plan. Depending on your needs, this may include a rehabilitation program, custom orthotics for mechanical or muscular issues, or other targeted treatment modalities.
What is Biomechanical Assessment?
-
A podiatric biomechanical assessment is a check‑up of how your feet and legs are built and how they move when you stand and walk. The podiatrist looks for anything in your posture or movement that might be causing pain, strain, or future injury in your feet, ankles, knees, hips, or back.
-
Many people live with pain or discomfort for years without realising the cause lies in the way they walk, stand, or move. A biomechanical assessment at Gait3D Clinic identifies the root cause — and gets you the right treatment.
-
🦶 Foot & Heel Pain
Plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, arch pain, or ball of foot pain that isn't settling with rest.
🦵 Knee, Hip & Back Pain
Often traced back to how your feet are loading and moving — problems higher up frequently start below.
🏃 Sports Injuries
Runners, cyclists, footballers, and gym-goers suffering recurring injuries, shin splints, Achilles pain, or knee problems that keep coming back.
👟 Abnormal Foot Posture
Flat feet, high arches, overpronation, or feet that roll inward or outward.
👣 Children's Walking Concerns
In-toeing, out-toeing, flat feet, tripping frequently, growing pains, or a child complaining of leg or foot pain — early assessment prevents long-term problems.
👴 Older Adults
Balance issues, joint pain, or age-related changes in gait that affect mobility and independence.

FAQs
This sounds like a lot of technology. How long does the appointment take?
We respect your time. Because our technology is fully integrated, the entire physical assessment takes just 120 minutes. Our AI apps, 3D laser scanners, and digital sensors capture millions of data points in real time, meaning no messy plaster molds or waiting around. You get an elite-level, deep-dive evaluation without losing your half-day.
What exactly do I get for the price?
You aren't just paying for an appointment; you are buying definitive answers. Your investment covers:
Direct, one-on-one time with a Consultant Podiatrist.
Full access to 7 advanced diagnostic technologies during your session.
A comprehensive, digital Lower Limb Health Report to keep for your records.
A bespoke, actionable treatment or prevention plan. If we find nothing wrong, you get total peace of mind. If we catch an issue, you get an immediate roadmap to fix it.
Is this assessment worth the investment if I’m not in severe pain?
Absolutely. In fact, that is the best time to have it. Think of it as preventative maintenance—just like a car MOT or a dental check-up. Many biomechanical issues, poor circulation patterns, and joint stresses build up silently long before you feel pain. Catching a micro-tear on the ultrasound or a pressure imbalance on the GaitScan™ today can save you months of costly physical therapy, missed workouts, or surgical interventions down the line.
