What Are Orthotics & Biomechanics?

Biomechanics is the study of how the body moves — and how abnormal movement patterns can create pain and injury throughout the entire body. Your feet are the foundation of your movement, and even small imbalances in foot posture and gait can have a significant impact on your knees, hips, back, and beyond. At Action Plus Physiotherapy, our biomechanical assessment service provides a comprehensive evaluation of your posture, gait, and movement mechanics. Where appropriate, we prescribe custom orthotics — specialised insoles designed to correct foot alignment, redistribute pressure, and support optimal lower limb mechanics. Our orthotics are not off-the-shelf insoles. They are precision-prescribed devices based on your individual assessment findings, ensuring the correction is specific to your foot, your movement pattern, and your condition.
