Foot posture analysis in Ballymena

Foot pain, knee discomfort, or hip tightness can start with what’s happening underfoot, how your foot lands, how you move, and where pressure travels during walking or running. At Get In Step Podiatry, led by HCPC registered chiropodist Dr. Elaine Hoey, we use specialist assessment to look beyond symptoms and help you get to the root cause.

Our foot posture analysis in Ballymena combines clinical examination with professional gait analysis and postural observation. This allows Elaine to pinpoint biomechanical factors that may be contributing to overpronation, uneven loading, callus build-up, recurrent soft tissue strain, or pain that keeps returning despite short-term remedies.

This approach is particularly valuable if you’re an athlete, you’ve recently increased activity, you’re experiencing lower limb pain that affects daily walking, or you’re unsure why you’re not improving. Once we understand your mechanics, we can recommend the right plan, this may include tailored footwear advice and, where appropriate, custom orthotics designed to support your foot posture and improve lower limb alignment.
