Meet Dr Chris Bishop PHD

My passion is using gait analysis to help people understand the cause of their injury or pain. When I founded The Biomechanics Lab, my vision was to translate research evidence on human walking and running into clinical practice. I feel I achieve this with every one of my patients.

As explained in the previous videos, our ability to accurately measure the biomechanics of how you move is dependent on reflective markers applied to landmarks of your foot, ankle, knee, hip, pelvis and thorax.

We apply up to 64 markers to your body to describe how you move. This provides us a level of unprecedented detail that is not possible with standard 2D video gait analysis commonly seen in practice.

Take a look at it all in action.

What is Achilles Tendinopathy?

It can happen to anyone. You don’t have to be a regular runner to get it. Likewise, it’s not about being over-weight. It is about managing the load that you apply on your body and ensuring that your body can handle it.   Achilles tendinopathy is one of the most common presentations of foot and ankle pain podiatrists see in practice. Whether you run or walk for exercise, think of the pain being a result of overuse in that your exercise volume
