At Dunford Health, we offer advanced gait analysis combined with PHITS™ 3D printed custom orthotics — a premium, highly precise solution designed to improve comfort, reduce pain and optimise the way you move.
By using cutting-edge pressure analysis technology and state-of-the-art 3D printing, we’re able to create orthotics that are uniquely tailored to your feet, your movement patterns and your lifestyle.
Gait analysis is a detailed assessment of how you walk and move, identifying how pressure, alignment and motion through the feet can influence the ankles, knees, hips and lower back.
Rather than assessing your feet in a static position alone, we use dynamic pressure and motion analysis to understand what’s really happening as you move.
During your assessment we:
This level of insight allows us to address the root cause of pain and dysfunction, not just the symptoms.
At Dunford Health we use PHITS™ (Precision Healthcare Insoles Technology System) — one of the most advanced orthotic systems available today.
Unlike traditional orthotics that are milled from flat materials or hand-modified, PHITS orthotics are designed digitally and 3D printed, using precise gait and pressure data captured during your assessment.
Fully bespoke design – created from detailed biomechanical and pressure data, not standard templates
True 3D printing – allows complex shapes, variable thickness and targeted support impossible with traditional methods
Exceptional accuracy and consistency – the digital process ensures repeatable, precise results
Lightweight yet durable materials – offering long-lasting comfort without bulk
Activity-specific design – orthotics can be tailored for everyday wear, sport, work or specialist footwear
This technology allows us to fine-tune support exactly where your feet need it — resulting in better comfort, improved function and more effective long-term outcomes.
PHITS 3D printed orthotics are designed to:
Redistribute pressure more efficiently across the foot
Improve lower-limb alignment and posture
Reduce strain on joints, muscles and soft tissues
Support more natural and efficient movement
Enhance comfort during daily activities and sport
They are particularly beneficial for people who have not found relief with off-the-shelf insoles or traditional orthotics.
