Clinical Trial Summary

Every year in France, 2 million falls by people over 65 are responsible for 10,000 deaths, the leading cause of accidental death, and more than 130,000 hospitalizations. The investigators will combine minimalist footwear, plantar massage, and workshops to re-learn walking and posture. The main objective of this study is to verify the acceptability and feasibility of this program among the elderly.


Clinical Trial Description

Study participants will benefit from a plantar massage session (5-10 min massage performed by a podiatrist) and one posture and walking workshop per week, also supervised by the podiatrist. Minimalist shoes have been purchased by the centers and used during the workshops. They will also be available to participants outside the workshops for the duration of the study. ;
