What is a Biomechanical Running Assessment?
Our Biomechanical Running Assessment in Ryde uses high-speed video gait analysis to assess how your body moves while walking or running.
During your treadmill gait analysis Ryde, you’ll walk or run while our podiatrists capture:
- Foot strike patterns and overpronation test
- Symmetry between left and right sides
- Step length and timing
- Running or walking efficiency
- Left vs right symmetry
- Joint movement and alignment
The result is a highly detailed biomechanics assessment picture of your movement that cannot be seen with the naked eye alone or in a standard assessment.
Why Get a Running Analysis?

Gait Analysis Ryde FAQ’s
Do I need a referral for a Biomechanical running assessment in Ryde?
No, you do not need a referral for a full running assessment. You can book a Biomechanical Running Assessment directly with OnePointHealth. However, some patients are referred by their GP, physiotherapist, or podiatrist depending on their condition.
How long does a biomechanical running assessment take?
A typical gait analysis appointment takes around 45-60 minutes. This includes walking or running on the treadmill, data collection, and a clinician review of your results. Your clinician will then explain your movement patterns and discuss treatment options.
What is involved in a gait analysis?
The gait analysis is super easy and non-invasive. You will simply walk or run on a treadmill while sensors and cameras record your movement.
Can gait analysis help with orthotics?
Yes. Gait analysis is often used to support orthotic prescription. The treadmill system provides detailed pressure and loading data that helps clinicians design or recommend orthotics that better match your biomechanics.
Is gait analysis suitable for runners?
Yes. A full gait analysis is particularly useful for runners. It can identify inefficiencies in running technique, asymmetries, and loading patterns that may contribute to injuries such as shin splints, plantar fasciitis, or knee pain.
What’s the difference between a normal gait assessment and video gait analysis?
A standard gait assessment is usually done visually by a clinician. Video gait analysis uses advanced pressure sensors and video technology to provide objective, data-driven insights into how your body moves. This allows for more precise diagnosis and treatment planning.
Can gait analysis help prevent walking or running injuries?
Yes. By identifying abnormal movement patterns early, a gait analysis can help reduce the risk of overuse walking or running injuries and guide improvements in running or walking technique, footwear, and biomechanics.
