Footscan + 3D Custom Printed Phits Insoles

New to Edge Physio and the Sudbury, Suffolk area is the cutting edge foot-scan technology from Gait & Motion Clinics, which measures your foot pressures in standing, walking and running.

This gives a complete picture of your foot pressures so that orthotics can be designed, specific to you, your foot requirements and the demands of your activity!!!!

This design is sent electronically  to the lab where your custom insoles are 3D printed and sent back to clinic to be fitted. They can even be designed to fit in football boots, cycling cleats or work boots!

There is a payment plan available to spread the cost of the insoles and therefore make this world leading technology entirely accessible to everyone.

If you have foot pain, ankle pain, knee pain or back pain and want to stay active, improve your running or be more comfortable in football boots - then get in touch with Edge Physio!

The 'go-to' sports injury and physiotherapy clinic in Sudbury.

For BUPA, AXA and other private healthcare registered clients, please contact your provider directly to enquire as to whether they will cover  or part-cover the cost of the orthotic provision.

Edge Physio has the only footscan plate technology in the Sudbury, Suffolk, area; we use this as part of an overall biomechanical screening assessment.

If you are just starting out running, have leg pain, suffer with previous injuries or simply want to improve any deficiencies, then this comprehensive assessment is for you.

The biomechanics screening will:

1. Take a thorough history of your previous injuries.
2. Assess the range of movement in your back, hips, knees, ankles and feet.
3. Look at specific functional movement capacities and limitations.
4. Specifically test the strength of the muscles throughout both legs.
5. Assess the ability to the leg to absorb force and produce power, through different validated functional exercises and plyometric based tests. This is not using the Functional Movement Screen (FMS)!
6. Use the footscan to review how your foot loads through walking and highlight any specific pressure points or reduced contact points.
7. Create a report specific to you and all of the above testing information, providing you with a comprehensive review of your lower limb biomechanics.

Specifically mentioned above is the fact we will not be using the FMS. This is because there are plenty of 'gurus' out there who will say the FMS is the best screening tool. Truth is, Scott applied the FMS to the Ipswich Town FC academy players for 2 years and correlated these scores with injury occurrence and severity. 

There was NO direct correlation between a 'poor' FMS score and increased number of injuries or severity of injury. Therefore a  much more specific and comprehensive lower limb screening tool has been devised by Scott which looks at movement, strength, functional ability  AND footscan data analysis.
