A Walking Gait assessment helps identify potential problems in your form that may be causing pain or could lead to injury.
You will walk on a treadmill at a slow pace in one minute intervals with the contactless MotionMetrix technology capturing all movement and analyzing your form via a camera at the front of the treadmill. A Master’s-level performance physiologist will observe you and guide you through the intervals required. Following the test, you’ll have a 30 minute consultation about your unique results and recommendations on how to improve them.
An annual Walking Gait assessment is a good way to keep tabs on your physical symmetry and efficiency, but for those with injuries or changes in health, more frequent testing may be recommended.
Walking Gait analysis is especially beneficial for long-term health optimization as a way to monitor your mobility and physical efficiency. Individuals who experience pain or can’t sustain a walking pace for long will receive tailored recommendations to help resolve issues. A Walking Gait assessment can also play a part in injury rehabilitation.
