At Conwy Physio Clinic, we use gait analysis to take a closer look at the way you walk or run, helping us identify movement patterns that may be causing pain, limiting performance, or increasing your risk of injury. Gait analysis is not only for runners!

Whether you have an ongoing problem, if you’re recovering from injury, managing a long-term condition, or aiming to improve athletic performance, our gait assessments offer the insights needed to create a personalised treatment plan.

Your session will include a detailed discussion of your symptoms and activity levels, followed by a recorded video of you running and/or walking on the treadmill (bring your trainers and shorts!) to allow observation of your movement patterns – for example, we will be looking at posture, stride length, stride width, foot strike and joint positions. We will perform a hands-on assessment of joint mobility, muscle strength, and balance, then review the findings with you in clear, simple terms. From there, we’ll recommend targeted exercises, footwear advice, or movement retraining to help you achieve your goals.
