30 minute to 1 hour initial assessment
This appointment will involve a detailed and tailored multi-system assessment. Often a treadmill gait analysis with 2D digitisation technology is needed and is included in this fee where necessary. Musculoskeletal, vascular and neurological assessment are also included in this assessment where necessary. Where immediate treatments can be offered these can sometimes be bolted on to avoid a second appointment.
£50
30 minute follow up appointments
If you have a condition that requires a follow up appointment for monitoring or evaluation of treatment - you may need more than one follow up appointment to be booked on an ad hoc basis. Orthosis modifications, rehab tuning, manual therapy and advice are examples of what we may use this type of appointment for

Semi-bespoke foot orthoses
Orthoses that are customised to your feet with the necessary functional prescription for each foot. Heat moulding and chairside modifications mean you take these away with you on the day.

Fully bespoke foot orthoses
Where the foot requires fully bespoke, highly supportive orthotic devices a 3D scan is taken and the prescribed device returned subsequently from a laboratory in Ireland. 3D scanning technology captures the complex curves of your feet for maximum comfort and performance. This is the gold standard of foot orthoses when nothing less will do.
