The structure of your foot supports your entire body. The slightest misalignment of muscles and bones can cause many different problems.

  • localized foot pain bunions, hammer toes arch and pain knee and leg pain
  • hip and back pain

Custom foot orthotics are medical devices that are custom made to correct your specific foot imbalances. They fit comfortably into your shoes and bring the foot muscles and bones into proper alignment.

 

Gait Analysis

The gait analysis involves observing an individuals mechanics while walking and running. The individual will be observed while walking and running on a treadmill. Recommendations will be made on the individual mechanics and the appropriate stretches and exercises will be provided.

This analysis is essential for individuals who love to run, hike, and walk.

 

Golf Enhancement Program

The program consists of a video analysis of a person's golf swing. The individual's mechanics, muscle recruitment pattern, and posture will be assessed. A person will be treated with Active Release Techniques to correct the mechanical imbalances and a golf specific stretching and strengthening program will be implemented. At the end of the program, another video analysis will be done to determine the person's progression.

This program will help you improve your golf game as well as prevent injuries that are very common to golfers.

Sport Specific Performance Care

Every sport requires different skills and different demands on the body. This program will evaluate the individual's strength, flexibility, and muscle firing patterns that are specific to their sport. Active release techniques will be used to promote proper body mechanics and a sport specific stretching and strengthening program will be prescribed. Assessment may involve video analysis of the skills required for that sport.
