Our Unique Approach

BioPed has developed a unique approach to the assessment, fabrication, fitting, and adjustment of orthotics – designed to ensure that the patient gets the best possible result. Each BioPed client receives a comprehensive, hands-on biomechanical assessment focused on their feet and how they move. Any potential sources of pain and individual lifestyle factors are taken into consideration to develop a care plan that is unique to each client.

What to expect on your first Footcare visit

What is a Biomechanical Assessment?

A complete Biomechanical Assessment takes about 45 minutes. Various tests are undertaken beginning with an assessment of muscle strength and joint flexibility; examining joints and muscles while seated, standing and walking to determine if and where abnormal function and mechanics exists. Finally, lower limb alignment is a focus, both while standing and walking.

Your Footcare Clinician will ask you a series of questions. Some questions may focus on:

  • past/current health conditions
  • medications
  • previous injuries/surgeries
  • daily activity
  • workplace environment
  • current footwear

Your Treatment Plan

After the Biomechanical Assessment is complete, your Footcare Clinician will develop an optimal treatment plan and recommend various solutions that may include stretching , home care tips, orthotics , bracing, footwear, compression socks or the need for referral to another allied health care professional or specialist.

Depending on your condition, goals and treatment plan, a BioPed Biomechanical Assessment appointment may then include: the sizing of your feet, trying-on of shoes (indoor and outdoor), the measurement/casting of your legs for compression or bracing, and/or the casting of your feet for custom orthotics.

What you Should Bring to your Appointment

  • In preparation for your appointment, you should plan to bring the following:
  • Your referral/ prescription if you have one (not required for initial visit)
  • Recent imaging reports if applicable -Your 2 most commonly worn pairs of shoes
  • Shorts, or plan to wear pants that can be easily rolled above the knee
  • Insurance card, and be aware of your plan/coverage details prior to the appointment
  • BioPed intake form; completing this in advance is preferred
