The Process

Kick-off call

You’ve made the decision to work with me. Yay! I’m so excited to support you and your child. Once you’ve purchased your gait analysis product you’ll immediately receive information on how to schedule our Kick-Off Call.

The goal of this introductory 30-minute video call is to gather information on your child, review their health history, discuss your goals with gait analysis, and make sure everything is in place to facilitate an excellent analysis for your child.

We’ll talk about what photos and videos I need for your child’s analysis, and once all items are received your child enters the queue for analysis.

Custom Gait Report

I pride myself on high attention to detail and quick turnaround times. You’ll receive your child’s fully customized gait report within 7 days of receipt of all necessary materials.

Discussion

We’ll meet over video call (up to 90 minutes is allotted) to discuss my findings, recommendations, and next steps to pursue. I recommend reviewing your child’s gait report in advance of this call so I can answer any questions that came up for you.

All the support you need

Your child’s gait analysis product comes with both phone and e-mail support. Seeing changes in your child’s walking pattern? Did they get new orthotics that you’d like me to look at, or do they have a new provider you’d like me to loop in? This level of support is all included with your purchase.*

*Gait studies include 6 months of unlimited phone and e-mail support.

*Gait consultations include 2 months of unlimited phone and e-mail support.

What families and providers are saying…

  • “Heather is the first person to recognize the signs that my son is probably hypermobile and shows some early signs of scoliosis. I have both of these things so I thought I would recognize them in my son, but with him some of the signs were different. Instantly so many things started making sense once we had this information! Even his pediatrician was impressed at how quickly Heather picked up on the subtle differences in how he walks and the struggles he has with certain activities. We’re now working with an local orthotist to get orthotic supports for him, and have a referral to see an orthopedist about his spinal curves.”

  • “My daughter has worn AFOs since she could walk, but certain things have always been a struggle, like going up and down hills, and knee pain when hiking. Heather was able to help us determine that while some parts of her AFOs were working really well for her, there were some adjustments our local orthotist could make that would improve her efficiency and decrease her pain. The very first time she walked downhill after these changes she told me “Mom, my knees don’t hurt anymore.” We would have done this YEARS ago if we had known this was an option!”
