Before & After

OUR TECHNIQUES

Here are the methods we employ in our approach to your treatment:

Visual Examination: The first step usually involves a visual examination of the individual's standing posture, walking pattern, and foot alignment to identify any obvious abnormalities.
Physical Assessment: A more detailed physical examination is conducted, evaluating muscle strength, flexibility, and joint mobility, and assessing for any signs of discomfort or pain.
Use of Technological Tools: Various technological tools, such as pressure plates, gait analysis software, or 3D scanners, may be used to get a more detailed understanding of the individual's foot biomechanics and posture.
Analysis and Recommendations: The collected data is analyzed to identify any issues. Based on the findings, appropriate recommendations for interventions like exercises, orthotics, or lifestyle modifications are made.

FAQs

Premium Clinic’s assessment

Children’s feet are not smaller adult’s feet; they are still growing and developing and are therefore more vulnerable to undesirable forces. The podiatrists at Premium Laser Clinic will thoroughly assess your child’s foot to identify risk factors and advise you on the best course of action. During the consultation a thorough developmental history will be taken and we request that you bring with you to the appointment information regarding your child's birth, developmental history, physical milestones, footwear and your concerns.
