Your feet, shoulders, and ankles all affect how your spine moves and feels. Using digital foot gait analysis, we assess how your foundation influences spinal alignment. We don’t simply mask symptoms; we work to correct underlying mechanical faults. While our treatment plans address immediate pain, lasting recovery depends on fixing the structural relationship that affects your long-term mobility.
Addressing Shoulder and Ankle Discomfort
Many people associate chiropractic care solely with the spine, but we also treat shoulder and ankle discomfort through adjustments, soft tissue therapy, and rehabilitative exercises. We work with common conditions like rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, and ankle sprains. By restoring proper joint mechanics, we treat the entire body to reduce pain and prevent further injury. Whether you’re dealing with ankle instability or restricted shoulder motion, our targeted approach resolves biomechanical problems so you can move freely again.
How We Use Digital Foot Gait Analysis
Stable movement starts at the foundation, which is why we use digital foot gait analysis to assess your foot mechanics and guide the creation of custom orthotics. We start by discussing your medical history and performing a physical examination of your feet. We then use a gait plate to measure your movement, revealing biomechanical issues that standard observation misses. This imaging lets us design customized supports that reduce pain and promote spinal alignment. By correcting irregularities at the source, we help you maintain your well-being and prevent future injuries.
Custom Orthotics Partnership With the Orthotic Group
Our partnership with The Orthotic Group allows us to serve your unique needs through precise assessments. By consulting with their team, we accurately address underlying biomechanical issues. Our evaluation process involves:
- Discussing your full medical history and specific pain.
- Conducting a rigorous digital gait analysis of movement.
- Capturing detailed 3D digital imaging data of feet.
- Fabricating personalized orthotics catered to your body.
We’re committed to supporting your healing through this individualized attention.
Connecting Your Foot Foundation to Spinal Alignment
We don’t limit 3D imaging data to foot comfort alone; we use it to stabilize the relationship between your foundation and your spine. Poor foot mechanics often trigger issues like sciatica and lower back pain, affecting your body’s entire movement chain. Through digital gait analysis, we identify the biomechanical imbalances that compromise your posture. We then create custom orthotics designed to correct these foundational problems. Serving our local community in Cloverdale and Langley means addressing the root cause of misalignment so your body functions as it should.
Personalized Treatment Plans for Spine Health
We don’t apply a one-size-fits-all approach to every patient. Instead, our chiropractors develop personalized treatment plans that address your spinal misalignments and unique health needs. Our approach benefits you by:
- Customizing a detailed personalized treatment plan that aligns with your daily activities.
- Targeting the specific root causes of discomfort rather than masking temporary symptoms.
- Restoring proper spinal function and physical balance.
- Teaching actionable home care routines that guarantee lasting relief and help prevent future injuries.
