A special interest at Active Life is assessment of foot function and lower limb mechanics, together with their connection to specific lower limb musculo-skeletal conditions

These type of problems are not solely suffered by athletes and sports persons, but can be experienced by all sections of the community, from the active over 60, to the factory operative standing on man-made flooring for 8-12 hours per day, to the teenage girl with lowered arches and anterior knee pain.

Our service includes:

• Biomechanical Assessment and measurement (video and static analysis)
• Wide range of off the shelf pre-fabricated orthotics
• Casting for patient specific custom made orthotics
