Inclusion Criteria

Participants in this study will be new and existing patients attending the CSU-CEW for biomechanical intervention. There will be an emphasis on those attending third year clinics which focus on new patients and patients with foot pain or biomechanical needs.

Participants will need to be over the age of 18, and must have signed a consent form prior to their initial podiatric consultation. As the data collected will be standard clinical data, and not require patients to engage with anything aside from standard clinical assessment and intervention (which would have been the case even in the absence of the study), this will satisfy the inclusion criteria.

Exclusion Criteria

Exclusions will be applied to those with conditions known to impair balance, gait, or both. For that reason, participants with known neurological or neuromuscular conditions; current lower limb fractures; lower limb surgery within the last 6 months; musculoskeletal injury within the last 6 months requiring an absence of greater than 1 week from work or sport; or allergies to sports tape will be excluded from participation in the study.
