Study type | Observational |
The use of heel wedges is often recommended as a clinical routine in individuals with foot pronation. However, there is a lack of information for examining the immediate effect of supports used to restore foot biomechanics on balance. The aim of our study is to examine the immediate effect of calcaneal support in the frontal plane on static balance in individuals with increased pronated foot. In this study, the fore-hind foot load distribution in static bipedal stance will be examined in healthy young adults. Then, static balance measurements will be made on one leg with and without support (medial heel wedge). For the evaluation of static balance on one leg, x-y mean, ellipse surface, A-P index measurements and romberg test will be used. In addition, the pain of individuals will be questioned and their foot postures will be evaluated. Healthy young adult individuals with a subtalar angle of 5 degrees and above in the weighted position will be included in the evaluations. Evaluations of the participants are planned to take approximately 15 minutes.
