Advanced Gait Evaluation & Management

Advanced Gait Evaluation & Management is a specialized service designed to assess, diagnose, and treat walking and movement disorders. Gait — the way a person walks — reflects the intricate coordination of muscles, nerves, bones, and joints. Any disruption in this process can lead to mobility challenges, pain, and reduced quality of life.

Our advanced gait evaluation uses state-of-the-art technology and clinical expertise to provide precise analysis, enabling tailored treatment strategies that restore mobility, improve balance, and enhance independence.

Purpose of Advanced Gait Evaluation

The evaluation aims to:

• Assess gait abnormalities caused by neurological, musculoskeletal, or orthopedic conditions.

• Identify underlying causes of walking difficulties.

• Measure the biomechanics of movement and balance.

• Provide data for individualized rehabilitation and management plans.

How the Process Works

1. Initial Assessment: A detailed clinical examination of posture, muscle strength, joint flexibility, and neurological function.

2. Gait Analysis: Using motion capture technology, pressure-sensitive walkways, and video analysis, we study walking patterns in detail.

3. Data Interpretation: Parameters such as step length, stride symmetry, speed, balance, and weight distribution are analyzed.

4. Personalized Management Plan: Based on findings, a customized therapy and training program is designed.

Conditions Addressed by Gait Evaluation & Management

Advanced gait evaluation is beneficial for:

• Neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease, stroke, cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, and dystonia.

• Orthopedic conditions affecting the spine, hips, knees, or feet.

• Post-surgical rehabilitation for joint replacement or fracture repair.

• Balance and movement disorders.

• Developmental gait abnormalities in children.

Management and Treatment Options

Our gait management services may include:

• Targeted physiotherapy: Strengthening, stretching, and balance exercises tailored to your needs.

• Assistive device prescription: Canes, walkers, orthoses, or custom footwear to improve walking efficiency and safety.

• Neurorehabilitation techniques: Gait retraining and movement coordination therapies.

• Technology-assisted training: Virtual reality, robotic-assisted gait training, and biofeedback systems.

• Patient education: Guidance on posture, ergonomics, and movement strategies for everyday activities.
