Gait analysis is an art form in and of itself. I like to put my hands above my head as I walk, how does that feel. Wow, this is hard to explain, it is very intuitive. Basically, I try to isolate different muscle group and see how that effects different functions. I am sorry, very difficult to explain this to someone. So I will have someone walk back and forth, I will say, grasp your hand behind your head, then I ask them how does that feel, the differences are very subtle. This will tell me what area of the body need to be worked first. By worked in mean exercises that restore the lost function. I find a definite order in what areas to work, wrong order, that causes people to resist treatment, same as going to fast for someone. Functional testing is better than gait analysis because it is easier to learn. Having someone drop a pen and watch them pick it up, do they lean one way or the other, head tilt, arm position. This is my first post so let me know if I need to explain what i am talking about, or if I am being way to simple. I just have no use for anything technical, I try and keep thing simple as could be. I look to the pelvis first, post or ant, hip foward, tilt.
