ADVANCED LASER TREATMENT & BIOMECHANICAL ASSESSMENTS

Podiatric Biomechanics & MLS Lazer Therapy

Biomechanical issues in the feet and lower limbs can lead to ongoing pain, poor posture and reduced mobility. At Springhead Chiropady and Podiatry, we offer podiatric biomechanical assessments to diagnose problems with walking patterns, joint alignment or muscle function.

We may recommend a combination of custom orthotics, MLS Laser Treatments, stretching plans or footwear changes to relieve symptoms such as heel pain, arch strain or knee discomfort. All assessments are carried out by our HCPC registered podiatrists in a relaxed, clinical setting.

Experienced Team, Friendly Faces

Friendly Support for Foot & Leg Pain from Our Clinic

We understand that ongoing foot or leg pain can really affect your quality of life. That is why our friendly podiatrists take time to fully understand your symptoms and explain everything clearly before recommending treatment.

Our aim is to make you feel supported, listened to, and confident in your care. Whether you are an active walker, runner, or simply want to move more comfortably, we are here to help every step of the way.

Podiatric Biomechanics

Frequently Asked Questions

If you are experiencing foot, leg or posture-related pain, our biomechanics FAQs can help you understand what to expect from an assessment.

It is the study of how your feet and lower limbs move and function. A biomechanical assessment looks at posture, gait and alignment to identify issues that may be causing pain or instability.

We often see patients with heel pain, arch strain, plantar fasciitis, knee or hip pain, and postural issues caused by poor foot alignment or abnormal gait.

We will start by asking about your symptoms and lifestyle, then observe how you walk and stand. We may also examine joint flexibility and test for muscular imbalances.

Treatment can include custom orthotics (insoles), footwear advice, stretching exercises, MLS Laser, or referrals for further care depending on what’s found in the assessment.

Yes. Biomechanical issues can affect people of all ages, from growing children to active adults and runners. Early assessment helps prevent long-term problems.

That depends on your condition. Some patients need just one or two sessions plus orthotics, while others benefit from regular check-ins to monitor progress.

Absolutely. Poor foot alignment can affect the way your whole body moves, leading to pain in the knees, hips or lower back over time. Treating the root cause can improve your overall posture and comfort.

Just call our clinic on 01482 671421 and we will arrange a convenient time for your appointment. Our team is always happy to talk through any questions you have before you visit.

What a wonderful and cheerful place this is, I first started going here just after the pandemic, I was having trouble with gout and fungus on my big toes, fiona has been looking after me and I go every 8 weeks, the staff are very friendly and always asking about your health.
During my last treatment at the beginning of March I was telling fiona about the knee pain I was having and how difficult it is to see a doctor, she told me about the laser treatment they do there for pain relief, she asked if I would like to try it, so I signed up for a 6 dose of treatment, you do not have to have a 6course but it was recommended.
Next day I went for the first half hour treatment, the next day I felt a big difference in the pain, upto now I have had 4 half hour sessions, and the difference to my knee has been unbelievable.
I am a 79yr old male and highly recommend this place, if you are suffering with any joint pain it is worth giving it a try. Thank you fiona and tessa.

Scott Ellerington
Having suffered with knee discomfort and arthritis in both knees due to historic sporting injuries, I have had a course of laser therapy treatment, which has reduced my pain significantly. I 100% recommend this treatment. I was sceptical but was willing to try anything to reduce the pain in my knees, the proof is in the pudding! Thank you so much for recommending this treatment!
