Why This Test Is Important?
Many people develop pain because abnormal pressure builds up in certain areas of the foot over time.
Without detailed pressure analysis, these problems can be difficult to identify.
Medilogic In-Shoe Pressure Analysis helps detect issues such as:
- Excess pressure on the heel or forefoot
- Poor weight distribution across the feet when you move
- Imbalanced walking patterns
- Inefficient push-off at your toes when walking
- Foot mechanics contributing to knee or hip pain
By identifying these problems early, treatment can be more targeted and effective.
Before getting new orthotics
If you’re considering custom orthotics, Medilogic In-Shoe Pressure Analysis can significantly improve the accuracy of your prescription.
Feet and walking patterns change over time due to:
- Injury
- Age
- Changes in activity levels
- Old orthotics wearing down
This assessment helps your podiatrist design orthotics that:
- Support your feet correctly
- Reduce pressure in problem areas
- Improve walking efficiency
- Prevent recurring pain
Better data leads to better orthotics and better long-term outcomes.
In-Shoe Pressure Analysis is helpful if you have pain in your:
Feet – Conditions like heel pain, plantar fasciitis, arch pain, or forefoot pain often occur due to repeated pressure in specific areas.
Ankles – Poor foot mechanics can increase the risk of ankle instability and recurrent sprains.
Knees – Foot posture and walking mechanics can affect knee alignment and joint stress.
Hips – When the feet don’t function properly, the body may compensate higher up the chain, contributing to hip discomfort or imbalance.
The body works as a connected system, and correcting foot mechanics can often improve pain in multiple areas.
