Sports Podiatry in Barcelona

At ITW Sport we have an expert team of sports podiatrists who focus on preventing, diagnosing, and treating foot conditions that can affect performance or cause discomfort during sports practice.

We understand that the difference lies not in implementing technology, but in knowing how to apply it to the athlete’s context. At ITW Sport, we don't leave gait analysis on paper — we assess how each correction affects stability during training, how the body responds to load changes, and how mechanics evolve after an injury. Our goal is not just to have a diagnosis but to translate it into performance.

Sports podiatry to prevent and optimize movement

Foot mechanics directly influence the efficiency of sports movements, load distribution, and the onset of joint or muscle discomfort. That’s why our approach focuses not only on treating pain but also on prevention.

We assess how the foot behaves both statically and dynamically, analyze the type of gait and its relationship with other structures (ankle, knee, hip), and determine whether custom insoles, corrective exercises, or footwear modifications are needed to train more safely.

Coordination with the rest of the team

ITW Sport

The work of the sports podiatrist at ITW Sport is not limited to the consultation room: we actively collaborate with other areas such as physiotherapy and osteopathy, the sports rehabilitation , and individualised physical preparation to address each case comprehensively. 

Moreover, if the athlete is undergoing injury recovery or returning to training after a break, the podiatric approach can be key to preventing relapses or correcting postural imbalances before they develop into chronic injuries.

FAQs about
Sports Podiatry

A sports podiatrist is a professional specialized in preventing and treating injuries of the foot and locomotor system related to physical activity. Their work includes gait analysis, the design of custom insoles, and the correction of biomechanical alterations that could affect performance or cause pain.

Sports podiatry focuses on analyzing sports movements and the specific functional demands of each discipline. While general podiatry may treat conditions such as ingrown toenails or calluses, sports podiatry aims to optimize performance and prevent injuries through movement analysis.

No. We only recommend insoles when there is a biomechanical alteration that requires them. In other cases, treatment may be based on corrective exercises, footwear adjustments, or coordinated work with other areas of the high-performance sports center.
