Let's talk Biomechanics.. For Kids 🧒👶👧👦

It’s how our feet and legs move when we walk, run, and play!

For children, good biomechanics mean strong muscles, healthy joints, and fewer injuries as they grow. Because kids’ feet are still developing, the way they move now can shape their posture, balance, and comfort for years to come.

👟 Fun Fact:

Children’s feet aren’t just smaller versions of adult feet — they’re constantly changing! That’s why it’s so important to pay attention to how they walk and run.

💚 Top 3 Signs to Watch For:
✔️ Frequent tripping or stumbling
✔️ Complaints of foot, ankle, or knee pain
✔️ Walking on tiptoes or unevenly

If you spot any of these, it could be a sign of an imbalance in your child’s gait. A quick biomechanical check-up can help keep little feet strong, steady, and pain-free — supporting healthy movement as they grow.

👣 Healthy feet mean happy adventures ahead! 🌟

🦶 October is Biomechanics Awareness Month! 🦶

If your feet, legs, or back often ache — or your shoes wear unevenly — the problem might not be where you feel pain, but how your feet move. That’s where orthotics come in.

💚 Orthotics are custom-made insoles designed to support and realign your feet, helping your body move more efficiently. They can:

✨ Improve posture and balance
✨ Reduce strain on joints
✨ Relieve pressure and pain in the feet, legs, and back
✨ Prevent injuries and future problems

At InStep of Oakham, we use biomechanical assessments to understand your unique gait pattern and create orthotics tailored to your needs — whether you’re sporty, on your feet all day, or just want pain-free movement.

👣 Every step matters — let’s make sure yours are supported!

👣 October is Biomechanics Awareness Month! 👣

Ever wondered why you trip more than others… or why your feet and legs ache after a simple walk? 🧐

It could be down to your gait — the way your body moves when you walk or run. Even small imbalances can cause big problems over time, such as:
💥 Tired, aching feet or legs after activity
💥 Frequent trips or stumbles
💥 Uneven wear on your shoes
💥 Pain in your knees, hips, or back

Our Biomechanics Assessments look at how your feet, ankles, and legs work together — helping us identify what’s really behind your discomfort. With the right support, including custom orthotics, we can improve balance, reduce pain, and make every step more efficient.

🌟 Whether you’re sporty, always on your feet, or just want to move comfortably again — this month is the perfect time to find out how we can help!

Did you know?

Foot ulcers are one of the most common complications of diabetes and poor circulation.

They often begin as a small sore but can quickly become serious 🥺

Warning signs to look out for include:

• Cuts or wounds that don’t heal
• Redness, swelling, or warmth in the foot
• Changes in skin colour
• Numbness, tingling, or pain

With regular podiatry checks, many ulcers can be prevented and problems spotted early.

This September, as part of Diabetic & Vascular Awareness Month, we’re here to help keep your feet healthy:
