Biomechanics
Biomechanics is an in-depth study of pain and discomfort, in this case related to foot functions. It looks at joints, muscles and general posture. Treating such conditions requires the specialist knowledge of a podiatrist, who can perform a biomechanical assessment, which is an examination of the foot and leg function and make individually tailored orthotics (insoles).
