The role of force and time in biomechanics.
This course highlights the use of pressure mapping technology to analyze foot function
and gait. Pressure mapping is more than vivid graphics of the feet on your computer; it
storyboards what is happening during stance and walking.
Tekscan data instantly reveals: Timing - time the feet are on the ground and speed at which they move Trajectory - path the center of force travels Symmetry - gait and isolated pivoting foot curve patterns
Why do these parameters matter?
They indicate the effect of a condition on foot and gait function and guide your treatment
approach. Positively affecting these parameters improves function.
