Relationship Between Foot Posture, Toe Flexor Strength, and Balance in Adolescents

NCT07132424 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 30

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The foot plays a critical role in movement and postural control, with toe flexor strength linked to gait, performance, and stability. While these relationships are well studied in adults, evidence in adolescents is limited. Pes planovalgus may reduce push-off capacity and weaken postural responses through decreased toe muscle strength. This study aims to examine the relationship between foot posture, toe flexor strength, and balance, focusing on anterior-posterior center of pressure changes in adolescents.
