Physiotherapist and Podiatrists work very closely together, biomechanical evaluation allows Podiatrists to establish if the mechanics of the lower limb and foot are functioning efficiently or not. Orthoses (insoles) can re-align the lower limb and foot mechanics and improve function and reduce energy expenditure during walking and running.
