“The know-how that makes the difference”
Are you experiencing plantar fasciitis, flat feet, or Achilles tendon pain, or do you think you might? At NORA Clinique du Pied in Montreal, we offer a biomechanical exam and gait analysis to relieve your pain and improve your posture.
Our Canadian Certified Pedorthist, with more than 25 years of experience, performs precise biomechanical assessments in a modern lab at our clinic, ensuring personalized solutions and a smaller environmental footprint thanks to fully local manufacturing.
A biomechanical foot exam is a comprehensive evaluation of the structure, movement, and forces applied to your feet, ankles, and knees.
This biomechanical assessment helps us understand how your feet support your weight and posture, so we can recommend tailored, effective solutions such as custom foot orthotics, for example.
Gait analysis complements the biomechanical assessment. It observes your weight bearing and stride in motion, barefoot and in footwear. For athletes, a treadmill test may be performed to optimize performance and help prevent injuries.
A biomechanical assessment and gait analysis can help a wide range of patients. Here is how each group may benefit:
Children can develop foot problems from a very young age. A biomechanical assessment helps detect abnormalities early, support healthy growth, and guide correction before pain or imbalances set in.
Adults with chronic pain or discomfort related to their work may benefit from a personalized analysis to identify the causes of foot or joint pain and improve daily comfort.
For older adults, a biomechanical assessment helps prevent falls, correct postural imbalances, and improve stability and mobility.
For athletes, the assessment helps optimize stride, distribute weight bearing evenly, and prevent injuries caused by misalignment or repetitive overload.
