How a nyc gait analysis lab can improve your
health

• Youve probably heard of gait analysis and a gait
  analysis lab and have a rough idea of what they
  are. Maybe you think its mostly for serious
  runners wanting to fine tune their technique in
  order to avoid injury. Or perhaps you think its
  a sales device of high-end running stores to
  help them sell expensive footwear.
• While some of this may be true, gait analysis is
  a whole science which involves much more than
  this.

Solutions for hip and low back pain

• Do you experience some mild
  aching and stiffness in the lower back?
• If so, then your lower back can contribute to
  your hip pain and weakness. Your lower back is a
  series of joints that move on top of one another
  to enable you to bend backwards, bend forwards,
  and shift your hips from side to side. Stiffness
  in the lower back will affect some of these
  motions and may affect the nerves that exit from
  the lower back and innervate the leg. Some signs
  of nerve irritation are pain, burning,
  numbness/tingling, and weakness in the muscles
  that are innervated by that nerve.

What is Gait Analysis?

• In essence, gait analysis is the systematic and
  scientific study of motion, usually human. It
  requires intensive observation by both the human
  eye and by cameras to intelligently process
  kinetic and kinematic data. Gait analysis should
  effectively measure muscle activity, body
  mechanics and body movement. Importantly, it
  should also deliver findings and advice in a
  clear and understandable way, as we do at The
  Center.

How has Gait Analysis developed?

• With the rapid pace of technological development,
  gait analysis as a field has enjoyed significant
  improvement. Gait analysis has come a long way
  since its origins concentrating on animals and
  the first scientific papers in the 1890s, looking
  at the bio-mechanics of human gait under loaded
  and unloaded conditions.
• Today, thanks to major continuing developments in
  photography and cinematography technologies,
  there is unprecedented visual access and
  bio-mechanical intelligence in how our bodies
  move and how we record related data.

Gait analysis is bigger than us!!!!

• As a science, its worth remembering that gait
  analysis also has much wider and deeper
  applications for improving health and making
  findings. It can be used to inform a range of
  medical diagnostics providing options for the
  treatment of conditions such as cerebral palsy
  potentially helping a patient rediscover who they
  are, should they ever lose their memory and
  offering us a greater understanding of movement
  outside our species).

Running Gait Analysis

• If you run regularly, I highly recommend having a
  professional running gait analysis performed.
  Having someone with expertise give you
  personalized tips can really help you to prevent
  injuries by improving the mechanics of your
  running form.
• If someone can help you with the form of your
  foot strike and your breathing rhythms as the
  professionals at CLINICUBE can, youll be on your
  way to your best, injury free performances.

Running Biomechanics

• Foot strike needs to be carefully evaluated as
  well. Which part of your foot hits the ground
  first and how does it hit? This can vary
  depending on if you are training for a sprint or
  a long-distance race. Sprinters tend to hit the
  ground with balls of their feet while distance
  runners tend to strike heel first. When the
  middle or heel of the foot hits first, it can
  help to reduce calf pain and injuries. Wherever
  the foot falls first, an important thing to
  remember is to avoid having your toes pointed
  outward. How your toes are pointed can be
  difficult for you to determine yourself so having
  someone else analyze this is important.
