If you or your loved ones live with diabetes, you understand the numerous ways it can impact your life, particularly when it comes to your feet. Foot complications are common among people with diabetes, but with proper foot care and regular check-ups, they can be prevented. This is where the team at Kenilworth Footcare comes in with our advanced footscan technology.

Taking Strides Towards Healthier Feet

Understanding the health of your feet is the first stride towards preventing complications like foot ulcerations, and our innovative footscan technology is here to help with exactly that. A footscan can offer a detailed analysis of your foot's structure, function, and pressure points, acting as the ultimate detective to uncover any potential issues before they become problematic.

Demystifying the Footscan

So, what is a footscan? In simple terms, it's a high-tech tool that provides a precise, in-depth analysis of your feet as they move. The technology captures hundreds of frames per second, providing an unrivalled look at your unique walking or standing patterns. This information helps us identify any unusual pressure areas or structural irregularities that can often lead to problems like foot ulcers in people living with diabetes. It can also help identify balance issues that can lead to falls.

Why a Footscan is Essential for People with Diabetes

Diabetes often leads to reduced blood flow to the feet and nerve damage, which can cause numbness. This means you might not feel a minor injury but it can quickly escalate into a serious wound or ulcer.

A footscan can help prevent this. By identifying high-pressure areas and biomechanical issues, we can take preemptive measures, such as recommending appropriate footwear, suggesting personalized orthotics, or creating a specific care regimen to maintain your foot health.
