Gait Analysis in Malaga: Prevent Injuries and Improve your Quality of Life
A gait analysis is a fundamental biomechanical analysis to identify problems in the way you walk and prevent injuries to your feet, ankles, knees, or back. In Malaga, at Semedi Salud, we offer a specialized “gait analysis in Malaga” by podiatrists with experience in sports health and rehabilitation, guaranteeing an accurate diagnosis and personalized treatments.
What is a Gait Analysis?
Gait analysis combines advanced technology and clinical experience to analyze how the foot touches the surface when walking or running. It includes the following elements:
Static and Dynamic Analysis
- Static: observation while you are standing, detecting arches, deviations, or weight distribution.
- Dynamic: recording on a treadmill and pressure platforms that reveal excessive support points when walking or running.
Postural and Support Analysis
The complete body alignment is evaluated, including ankles, knees, hips, and back, to detect postural compensations.
Report Preparation and Action Plan
A detailed visual report is generated with graphs and data, along with personalized recommendations: insoles, exercises, footwear guidelines, and postural habits.

Benefits of Gait Analysis
Injury Prevention
Identifies alterations in gait that cause heel pain, plantar fasciitis, knee overload, or lower back discomfort.
Improved Athletic Performance
Optimizes the technical gesture, corrects asymmetries, and improves pressure distribution. Ideal for runners, soccer players, hikers, and athletes in general.
Custom Orthotics
Manufactured according to the findings of the study, adapted to your morphology. They improve stability, reduce pressure points, and correct gait.
Improved Posture
Balanced support in the feet affects the entire postural chain. Corrects alterations and relieves back and hip pain.
Who should Have a Gait Analysis?
Athletes and Runners
Anyone who plays sports regularly, especially those with recurring injuries or looking to improve their performance.
People with Chronic Pain in Their Feet, Knees, or Back
For those who suffer from plantar fasciitis, bunions, tendinitis, osteoarthritis, or postural imbalances.
People with Flat Feet or Cavus Foot
Alterations of the plantar arch require specific support to avoid long-term complications.
Patients with Systemic Diseases
Diabetic patients, those with rheumatoid arthritis or other conditions benefit from a study to prevent ulcerations and complications in the feet.
