Continuing to look at leg length discrepancy here. This is one tool we use to help identify it.🔎
.
We love our pedograph. A beautiful snapshot of the gait cycle.😍👣
.
What are we looking at? Windswept mechanics. In this case the wind is coming in from the right and blowing the person over to the left 🌬
.
The body is amazing at adapting. In this case the brain recognizes that the left leg is shorter so it tries to even the playing field.
.
Left leg is shorter ➡️ longer supinatory phase as the foot reaches for the ground
.
Right is longer.. so, you guessed it, it tries to make it shorter ➡️ quicker into pronation
.
Man our bodies are amazing! 😁🧠🤓
