Plantar Pressure Mapping (Feet Scan)
Plantar pressure mapping is a valuable tool used in biomechanics, sports science, and orthopedics to assess how pressure is distributed across the soles of the feet during various activities like walking, running, or standing. It involves the use of specialized equipment such as pressure-sensitive mats, which record the force exerted by the feet on the ground over time. By analyzing these pressure patterns, we can gain insights into foot mechanics, detect abnormalities, diagnose conditions like flat feet or high arches, and tailor interventions such as orthotics or gait training to improve foot function and alleviate pain or discomfort. Plantar pressure mapping helps in optimizing footwear design, enhancing athletic performance, and aiding in rehabilitation programs for individuals with foot-related issues.
