Summary

This quasi-experimental study was designed to evaluate the effects of an eight-week foot core training program on foot pain, foot function, and pressure pain sensitivity in individuals with fibromyalgia. Participants were recruited among individuals diagnosed with fibromyalgia according to the American College of Rheumatology (ACR) and the American Pain Society-American Academy of Pain Medicine (AAPT) criteria.

The intervention consisted of a structured foot core training program focused on strengthening the intrinsic foot musculature. Assessments were conducted before and after the intervention period. Outcome measures included foot pain and foot function assessed using the Foot Health Status Questionnaire (FHSQ), as well as pressure pain thresholds measured using mechanical algometry at six predefined rearfoot anatomical points.
