Summary

Foot pronation is a natural and essential movement that occurs during walking or running. It involves the inward rolling of the foot, allowing for effective shock absorption and weight distribution, Individuals with pronated feet have poorer standing postural control compared with individuals with normal feet. This may be due to the reduced stability within the foot joints. Static stretching (SS) has been shown to increase the joint ROM, improve performance, and prevent injury. The connection between the hamstring muscles and the intrinsic foot muscles is explained through their integration within the same myofascial pathway-the superficial back line.

Conditions

  • Pronation; Ankle

Interventions

OTHER

STATIC HAMSTRING STRETCH

For the static stretching technique, individuals lay supine in a straight posture on the treatment table and relaxed. Then, the pelvis and thighs opposite to the lower limb to which the stretching technique was to be applied were tied with Velcro straps. With the knees extended, the foot in neutral position and the hip joint bent as much as possible within its range, the hip joints were bent more until the hamstring muscle was stretched with light, tolerable pain, and kept there for 30 seconds
