In Brief Purpose: To examine the relationship between obesity, genu valgum, and flat feet in children, find practical implications for therapeutic interventions. Methods: A total of 1364 children aged 3–7 years took part research. Their body mass index was calculated their weight status described. Participants' knee alignment assessed by measuring intermalleolar distance standing position with knees contact. The height longitudinal arch each foot measured using Clarke's angle. Results:...
The study aimed to assess the effectiveness of an original intervention programme unstable surface dual-task functional exercises on postural stability in adolescents with intellectual disability (ID).A total 34 ID, aged 14-16 years, were engaged our study. A 17-person experimental group (E) took part a 12-week which consisted exercises, designed after activities daily living (ADLs). Another 17 youngsters constituted control (C). Within span 12 weeks, assessment was conducted twice both...

Twenty-nine male judocas and nontraining peers participated in this study. The arch of the foot (as Clarke's angular values) was measured under non-weight-bearing conditions two-leg one-leg stands. Postural balance assessed by Flamingo test. Judocas presented better static higher arches foot. Significant differences values a sitting standing on position were found both groups. After transition to stand, height participants still significantly decreased. Weight bearing did not affect judokas....
Background: This study sought to assess the prevalence of flat feet in primary school children and find correlations among arch height, ankle dorsiflexion range motion (ROM), obesity level. Methods: The 400 aged 10 12 years who took part had their body weight, fat percentage measured. Based on these measurements, mass index was calculated weight status categorized for all participants. height longitudinal foot measured a computerized podoscope given Clarke's angles. Dorsiflexion ROM assessed...
Background A stable standing posture, and effective aesthetic gait, depend heavily on correct anatomical construction of the feet, thanks to which they can play their important role. The shape height foot arches are already formed in preschool early school years; therefore, abnormalities disorders children's correlations between formation somatic build, still crucial interesting issues for orthopedists, pediatricians, physiotherapists, podiatrists. This study deals with changes longitudinal...

Background: Assess the Kinesio Taping (KT) effect on balance and foot arches.Methods: Thirty young people with intellectual disability (ID) flat feet were randomly assigned to experimental (E) control (C) groups. Group E had KT applied sole of their both groups participated in a 12-week task-oriented training conducted three times week. Balance arches tested baroresistive platform before after study.Results: Enhanced was found more balanced posture medio-lateral center pressure displacement...

Introduction: Myofascial pain syndromes and upper crossed syndrome (UCS) are common phenomena observed in society. The main reasons for their formation postural defects chronic muscle overload. Trigger points (TP) develop within the affected muscles, generating other symptoms that worsen quality of life. A popular method therapy is ischaemic compression (IC) trigger energy techniques (MET). However, literature on subject, there a lack information effects series therapies with these reduction...
