Welcome to Sport Orthotics

Our Orthotic and biomechanics clinics are based in Hamilton, South Lanarkshire and also have clinics across Scotland including, Aberdeen, Ayr and Glasgow city centre dedicated orthotics and biomechanical assessment clinic (in Finnieston around 100 metres from Charing Cross). We provide biomechanical assessment at our Hamilton, Glasgow, Aberdeen and Ayr based clinics.
Our satellite clinics across the conutry allow us to provide a service to the rest of Scotland and reduce the need for travel for people across Scotland.
Sport Orthotics was started in 2008 undertaking private biomechanical assessment and orthotic clinics primarily for runners in Athelite running shop in Hamilton. The service for runners quickly expanded and provided biomechanical assessments and orthotics for patient who wish to walk and go about their daily activities with general aches and pains to patients with complex neurological problems.
The team were one of the first private biomechanical assessment clinics with their own on site lab and have been leaders in the field of clinical biomechanical assessment for many years. The Glasgow clinic was first started in 2015 in the Finnieston area of Glasgow.
The Glasgow clinic has evolved and grown and moved to our newest clinic in La Belle Place, near the Park circus area of Glasgow overlooking Kelvingrove Park. It is situated close to Charing Cross and a short walk from Glasgow city centre.
The Glasgow biomechanics clinic is a custom built facility with force plates pressure mat, 2 camera gait analysis treadmill, digital scanning technology with patients able to be involved in the custom design of their 3d printed orthotics
Our clinics in Aberdeen and Ayr are set within Physiotherapy clinics and private hospitals with joint clinics with both physiotherapists and Orthopaedic foot and ankle surgeons, to provide a nationwide network of clinics across Scotland.
Are Orthotics right for me?
Orthotics are most commonly used in the form of insoles (or foot orthotics or orthoses) in footwear to help control the mechanics of the foot when people walk or run. Our specialist Orthotists and Podiatrists within our biomechanics clinics in Hamilton South Lanarkshire and also Glasgow city centre are specifically trained in assessment and manufacture of custom orthotics for their patients.

Traditionally manufactured orthotics
We still do the traditional stuff too!
We still manufacture orthotics using the traditional approach using our orthotic lab. As such we still take plaster casts within our biomechanics clinics to manufacture your prescription.
Our preference is to take a non-weight bearing cast, in order to control the biomechanics of the foot and ankle in walking or running. Our custom orthotics pages explain why we take this approach with some patients rather than scanning or box impressions.
Assessments & Services
A biomechanical assessment is a specialist assessment undertaken to assess the mechanics of movement to establish possible causes for aches, pains and discomfort of the body. The biomechanical assessment is done to understand the root cause of problems to understand the correct approach to treating these problems.
Sport Orthotics have been delivering biomechanical assessments for the Hamilton, Lanarkshire and Glasgow area for many years. Since 2006 we have treated over 6000 patients successfully and continue to grow
Our biomechanics experts will help you understand how your movement patterns relate to aches, pains and strains you may be experiencing, to then provide advice and support how these may be addressed
