Difference between The Running lab gait analysis and the Gait analysis done in sports shop
Many shoe shops and sports stores offer investigations, which are increasingly labelled as gait analysis.
The methods used, such as video recordings, are not validated and no report generated for the customer to take to their GP or healthcare professional such as a podiatrist or physiotherapist.
Another method is wet foot print test
The wet footprint test is where you get your feet wet and then stand on something like a paper towel and then it reveals your arch shape. Perhaps you can see a low arch, neutral arch or a high arch foot from this.
This is a static weight bearing on the floor, the foot print or the weight distribution is not taken in an entire gait cycle.
Whereas the Running Lab Gait analysis protocol analyses the gait of the patient at various key moments during gait cycle.
