Could gait modification therapy help you walk better and reduce knee pain? Find out with a free gait analysis and consultation. Your gait analysis is completely free. Our clinical team will map how force moves through your knee and tell you plainly whether SciMoTech could support your knees with no obligation to join our therapy program.

What is SciMoTech Therapy?

SciMoTech Therapy footwear isn’t an off-the-shelf walking shoe or something you wear all the time. It’s a foot-worn device that you wear for just 30 minutes a day to support your gait and knee function. Each pair is customized as part of a practitioner-guided therapy program designed to modify gait mechanics and influence how force is distributed through the lower limb during walking. The footwear works together with your personalized treatment plan and ongoing clinical guidance to create a complete therapy system.SciMoTech Therapy focuses on changing movement, not anatomy. Using our GaitMod technology, we influence how forces move through your body while walking and support improved mechanics.

Recovering from bilateral knee replacement surgery is incredibly tough, but SciMoTech home therapy shoes have been a life saver. I started the therapy on July 1st, and I felt immediate improvements in both my walking and pain relief from the very first day. A special thanks to Chris, who is an excellent evaluator. He is extremely knowledgeable about the process and how the therapy works to support healing. The shoes give my knees the perfect structured support to walk naturally and evenly. If you are struggling with post knee surgery gait or join pain, SciMoTech is worth every penny.

I’m a 64 year old active and competitive surfer/coach with over 40 years in sports medicine and physical therapy. During my 20 years of competing in Ironman triathlons and marathons I’ve suffered from knee pain in both knees. I’ve had 3 knee scope surgeries (1 on the left knee and 2 on the right) for torn meniscus cartilage and osteoarthritis. I avoided squatting, fast walking and light jogging which greatly affected now with grandchildren and approaching retirement. I had to get back to living without fear of pain so I decided to try old school PT/Sports Med treatment biomechanics SciMoTech before injections and total joint replacement. I became a patient on April 15, 2026 I started with Chris and Tom and June 11, 2016 I was able to squat without knee pain and joint cracking. Recently I had to run after my granddaughter on the beach and after realized it was without pain. Thank you Chris and Tom at SciMoTech for giving me back my active life. As a clinician and compliant patient I strongly recommend SciMoTech for any chronic joint pain from the spine, hips, knees and foot/ankle.

My dr suggested that I reach out to SciMo Tech guys for some non surgical support with my knees issues . The team designed a pair of shoes for me and I used their protocol for over a year . I checked with them 4 times and every time we discussed and adjusted the shoes . The end result is that I have improved in every category From the original visit and as a result the pains on my knees has been almost eliminated . I highly recommend this therapy to anyone in need

I was convinced my knee was on the path to surgery. I never would’ve believed that these shoes would make such a significant difference. The initial assessment take's time because it is very thorough. Then the shoes are customized to fit your needs. The knowledge and expertise is unsurpassed The shoes continue to make a huge difference in my life. I and consistently telling people with knee pain either pre-or post surgery that they must go in and see them.

Highly knowledgeable and very helpful therapists and technicians who apply groundbreaking science to re-educate your gait and alleviate the pain that accompanies knee injuries or degeneration. Highly recommend for those hoping to avoid invasive knee procedures or to recover more quickly from them.

I was scheduled for 2 knee replacements, when my orthopedist suggested gait correction with SciMoTech. Now, I walk pain free and have no plans for any surgery. The process is easy and pain-free. I can’t describe how great my experienced has been. Tom, Chris and the crew are kind, a pleasure, and make it all easy. DO IT. NOW.
