Plantar pressure measurement

Plantar pressure measurement is a way to assess how your weight and force are distributed across the bottom of your feet when you stand or walk. Using a specialized pad or sensor system, healthcare providers can identify areas experiencing excessive pressure, which might lead to discomfort or foot problems. This information helps in diagnosing issues, designing custom footwear, or planning treatments to improve foot function and prevent injuries. Essentially, it provides a detailed map of pressure points on your feet, offering valuable insight into your foot health and gait.
