Thank you, Sandy Macleod from Macleod Roofing Ltd, for allowing us to share footage from his recent 3D gait analysis 🏃‍♂️📈

Booking a 3D Gait analysis can benefit you in three main ways: treating running injuries, reducing injury risks, and gathering data to improve running performance.

During your session, your clinician will attach reflective markers to your legs and shoes. They'll measure your movement 200 times per second to identify any gait abnormalities or inefficiencies. After warming up on a treadmill, data collection begins, including tests at different speeds or with varied footwear. If needed, gait re-education will be provided.

Finally, your clinician will review the report with you, creating a personalised plan to address imbalances and enhance biomechanics. We hope this clarifies what to expect before booking your 3D gait analysis! 😃
