Gait analysis?

Gait analysis focuses on the position and alignment of the body and its relationship to the foot and the ground. From here we assess the forces, motion, and compensations contributing to injury or pain throughout the kinetic chain.

Mobile HD video analysis

Resonance’s Motion + Lab’s simultaneous high definition dual video capture gives us the best possible information about the runner or walker, to help us carefully craft a management plan to see you back enjoying life.

Specialising in children’s podiatry

Children play

Podopaediatrics is an area of podiatry focused on the diagnosis and treatment of foot disorders in children. Your podopaediatrician (children’ s podiatrist) understands the basic principles of child development, relevant milestones, normal and abnormal development, and commonly occurring foot problems in the child.

Painful legs and feet are common amongst children and adolescents, but pain is by no means normal. Pain should always be investigated if symptoms persist for 48 hours or more, if there is associated falling or tripping or self-withdrawal from sports and activity occurs.

Some of the more common areas of concern for parents include their children’s flat feet, in-toeing, heel pain, toe walking, ingrown toenails, plantar warts and skin rashes, and uneven or rapid shoe wear.

It is important to have your child’s feet evaluated by an experienced children’s podiatrist every year from around the age of four.

Our Resonance podiatrists can educate parents on appropriate footwear and normal development to provide peace of mind and sound management options.

Lauchlin ClarkWellington Region

Resonance Hutt City 

From an early age Lauchlin has always had a passion for the health sciences and has had a keen interest in helping others. Throughout the first few years of his adulthood, Lauchlin discovered that Podiatry would be an excellent and crucial career in helping people from all walks of life. With an aging population and increasing foot complications throughout the New Zealand population Lauchlin felt Podiatry would be a rewarding and purposeful Health profession to pursue. Lauchlin loves being given the chance to help the local community and is incredibly grateful to be in a position where he can significantly change people’s quality of life for the better.  

Lauchlin loves all areas of Podiatry, from sports podiatry to the surgical aspect. He is currently focusing on treating patients who need general care which involves treating patients with callus, plantar warts, ingrown toenails, amongst other foot conditions. Having the ability to offer people instant relief from pain caused by conditions such as ingrown toenails or corns is personally one of the most satisfying aspects of the occupation. Becoming a podiatrist was the best decision Lauchlin made regarding his passion for helping people and he especially loves the diversity in the patients we treat, from athletes to aging individuals.  

As someone who plays hockey, gyms frequently and loves to be active, Lauchlin believes it is vital that people understand the significance of foot-health awareness as it is a part of our body that can sometimes be overlooked or neglected even though they are the part of us that connects us to the earth. Many foot complications that we witness are preventable and with the right education, significant improvements to lower limb health can be achieved with a little self-care and knowledge. This is a crucial part of podiatry, as prevention is much more desired than treatment alone and is key to a healthier and happier New Zealand.
