What is a Foot Assessment?

A foot assessment is a detailed evaluation of your foot health, structure and walking pattern.

The purpose of the assessment is to:

• Understand the cause of foot pain
• Identify abnormal walking patterns
• Evaluate foot alignment and posture
• Detect pressure points and imbalances
• Assess mobility and stability
• Recommend personalised treatment options

At PodiaXpert, we believe that understanding the problem is the first step towards finding the right solution.
