Footscan and Orthotics
Scanning
Our foot-scans are conducted on a pressure plate with over 4000 pressure sensors reading your movements at a rate of 300 times per second. Working with PHITS we are able to produce custom orthotics for a broad range of purposes.
Our scan protocol consists of 3 phases: 1: A snapshot of you standing in neutral, this shows us your centre of gravity, and weight bearing pattern. 2: A reading over time of your static standing. This shows your balance and postural sway, we also see how much your centre of gravity sways when stood still. 3: An active scan, during this you walk up and down, over the pressure plate where we collect a number of live readings, take an average and get and understanding of your gait. |
