ACTIVE CHIROPRACTIC STAFFORD

Biomechanical Assessment

Our chiropractors use biomechanics assessments to identify patterns in the way you move that are causing your injury.

What can a biomechanics assessment help with?

THE WHAT

What is a Biomechanics assessment?

We use biomechanics assessments to look for issues in your posture and movement, with particular focus on legs and feet. Our chiropractors analyse the way you move and how your body functions during activity and sport.

We use the latest technology to look at alignment, muscle strength and any potential weaknesses in the lower body. This helps us to identify any abnormal motion patterns that could be causing your mobility issues or injury.

THE HOW

Chiropractic Techniques

What happens in a biomechanics assessment?

During your first consultation, we’ll go through your relevant medical history. Our chiropractor will perform an examination and discuss the findings with you. The chiropractor will then discuss a personalised treatment plan with you, including whether they think you would benefit from custom orthotic insoles.

Do I need to bring anything with me?

It can be useful to bring the shoes you usually wear daily, and any sports trainers or work footwear. If you currently have any orthotics or insoles, please bring those too.

THE WHY

Why Choose Active Chiropractic In Stafford?

What our Customers Say

Nick has really helped me with cervical arthritis and stenosis. highly recommend.
Nick is great, sorted me out on more than one occasions.
If you have any Joint and muscle pain, pop and see Nick, If anyone can sort it Nick can 🙂
Many years ago I had a frozen shoulder, I had a course of half a dozen sessions with a chiropractor with no noticeable improvement. Then a friend suggested that I give Nick a try, so I had three sessions with Nick over a relatively short period of time, and no more shoulder or neck problems at the end of this period. I'm now at an age where I should be employing a gardener, but regular visits to Nick have enabled me to enjoy lengthy sessions working in the garden, safe in the knowledge that if and when I overdo things Nick will rapidly get me firing on all cylinders again.
Nick will put you at your ease, is brilliant at his job & I personally can't recommend him highly enough.
Nick is very professional, friendly and does an incredible job of making me feel more flexible again. Highly recommend!!!
I've been seeing Nick for years for various niggles and just to keep things loose. I have very complex medical issues and this man knows exactly what they are and how they affect my body. Such a clever bloke whose always looking to enhance his skills, I'd never think of going anywhere else; man's a genius.
Nick is well on the way to get me back on track!!
Great appointment everything made clear and treatment plan put in place really grateful
I've had back, neck, shoulders and knee problems for many years and seen several therapists but going to see Nick is the first real breakthrough I've experienced. There have been noticeable changes in my mobility around my neck, shoulders and legs particularly. I don't expect miracles as I've had back pain for over 40 years but am happy with the progress so far. It's early days yet, but would recommend Nick and am looking forward to my next appointment 😀.
Nick managed to fit me in at short notice. After having agonising pain in shoulder and back he soon diagnosed the problem. I would 100% recommend. Thanks Nick .
Nick is very professional and offers a great plan to get you back on your feet excellent treatment

Common Questions

Who can benefit from a biomechanics assessment?
Biomechanics assessments are suitable for people of all ages and activity levels. Whether you are recovering from injury, experiencing persistent pain, training for sport, or simply looking to improve your posture, our tailored approach can help.

What should I wear?
For the most accurate assessment, we recommend wearing comfortable clothing that allows free movement — such as shorts, leggings, or sportswear. Please also bring your everyday footwear and any trainers or work shoes you use frequently.

How long do appointments last?

  • Initial Consultation: Around 45 minutes, including history, assessment, and treatment.
  • Follow-up Treatments: Usually 20–30 minutes, depending on your treatment plan.
  • Custom Orthotics: After your initial assessment, we will book a fitting appointment approximately one week later.

 

What results should I expect?
Most patients notice improvements in movement and reduction in discomfort after just a few sessions. Longer-term benefits include improved performance, reduced risk of injury, and better overall posture.

Are orthotics always required?
Not every patient needs custom orthotics. They are only recommended if we identify abnormal foot mechanics or gait issues that would benefit from extra support.

Is the assessment safe?
Yes. All assessments and treatments are carried out by fully qualified chiropractors, using safe, evidence-based techniques designed to support your health and recovery.
