An osteopath is able to diagnose many of the causes of pain. In some cases of chronic back pain, or pain in the knees and hip joints the problem may stem from bio-mechanical dysfunction that starts from the feet. Proper diagnosis of this as the cause using the Gait Scan technique means that the use of prescription orthotics can in many cases help reduce the pain arising from such problems and even eliminate it completely. These devices are used to help the foot to regain its proper mode of functioning and can relieve pain not only in the feet but also in the knees, hips, low back, upper back, neck and even headaches.
