“Advanced Gait Analysis, Simplified”

CColpod Therapies Limitedin Chesterfield & Hathersage we we are a friendly team of skilled podiatrists who have been leading the way in Biomechanics and offer a comprehensive range of services and treatments, particularly around MSK (Musculoskeletal) foot and lower limb pain.

Our Biomechanical assessments are open to anyone who has foot, ankle or lower limb pain, particularly runners and athletes.
We use the same advanced motion technology trusted by professional athletes to assess your running gait and are one of the very few clinics in the East Midlands. These diagnostics help us further fine tune your assessment.

One piece of technology we use in our Gold and Platinum Running Assessments is the baiobit. This is an amazing non invasive device that sits at the bottom of your spine on your pelvis and provides another level of data.

It tells us stance, swing and float phases, cadence, step and stride length and we can easily see any asymmetry that may be occurring. It also gives us information on how your pelvis is moving in all 3 body planes. We do various tests with this; walk, running, balance, jumps and a variety of other uses. This can be used pre and post treatment and tests will show progression or not, making it a great rehab tool.

At the end of the assessment, we'll discuss the data and you'll have a better understanding of your injury and how to prevent future reoccurrences, along with a treatment plan.

Better Support - Betters Steps

Foot pain isn’t something you just have to “put up with.” 👣

Whether it’s aching heels, sore arches, or discomfort after a long day, the right support can make a huge difference. That’s where orthotics come in.

Orthotics are specially designed inserts that fit into your shoes to support your feet, improve alignment, and reduce strain on muscles and joints. By correcting how your foot and body moves, they can help relieve common issues like plantar fasciitis, flat feet, bunions and general fatigue.

Colpod Therapies Limited we use the same advanced motion technology trusted by professional athletes to assess your gait. One of the pieces of tech we use in clinic is the Footscan pressure mat. This quantifies what the eye cannot see, allowing us to take your gait analysis and orthotic prescriptions to the next level with accurate, objective data.

The Footscan can also be repeated to check the insoles have improved your gait too.

The result? Less pain, better posture, and more comfort in your everyday life.

If you’ve been dealing with persistent foot pain, it might be time to look beyond quick fixes and consider proper support from the ground up.

Your feet carry you every day—give them the support they deserve. 💙

Have you ever suffered with an ingrown toe nail? Ingrown toenails might seem small, but they can cause serious discomfort 😖

If you’ve ever dealt with one, you know the pain—redness, swelling, and that sharp sting with every step. The good news? They’re often preventable.

👣 Trim nails straight across (not too short!)
👟 Wear properly fitting shoes
🧼 Keep your feet clean and dry

If it’s already painful or looks infected, don’t ignore it—getting it checked early can save you a lot of trouble. We always try conservative treatment first, however, we are also here when nail surgery is the best option. All our partial or total avulsions come with a local anaesthetic and follow on appointment to check healing and all is going well. All our podiatrists are HCPC registered.

🏃‍♂️ Back in February we visited myRaceKit North / Front Runner with one of our pieces of technology we use which provides advanced clinical gait and movement analysis. The is used in many of our Biomechanical Assessments. Whilst we were there offering free consults, we ran a prize draw to all those who came to see us.

The lucky winner was Jemma Whitley who won a Platinum Running Assessment at our Chesterfield clinic. Jemma visited the clinic today and experienced first hand how much work goes in to our assessments, gaining a better understanding of her running gait and performance.

It was a pleasure to meet you and good luck with the Sheffield Marathon!
