Back and Knee Pain Often Start in a Surprising Place: Your Feet

Back and knee pain often begin in the feet. When your arches collapse, your ankles roll inward, or your stride is uneven, the rest of your body compensates. Over time, this leads to knee strain, hip tightness, and lower back pain, especially for people who stand all day or walk long distances.

How 4 Camera Gait Analysis Helps

At Whitby Family Footcare Clinic, we use 4 camera gait analysis to identify the exact mechanics behind your pain. This technology captures your stride from multiple angles and reveals issues that are not visible to the naked eye, including delayed heel lift, overpronation, and limb length differences.  4 camera gait analysis is useful for patients who run and assessment of their shoes.

Personalized Treatment Based on How You Move

Once we understand how your body moves, we design a treatment plan that may include custom orthotics, footwear changes, stretching programs, or targeted strengthening. Many patients are surprised at how quickly knee and back pain improve once their foot function is assessed.
