Official Title: Investigation of the Effects of Different Subtalar Joint Pronation Amounts on Lower Extremity Anatomical Measurements, Jump Performances and Postural Stability in Healthy Individuals
Brief Summary:
The lower extremity consists of segments that can be affected by the relative position of each other.Deviation of one segment from its normal alignment in the lower extremity also affects the alignment of other segments.The hip joint can affect the frontal plane alignment from proximal to distal, while the foot and ankle complex can also affect it from distal to proximal.Increased subtalar joint pronation in the kinetic chain from distal to proximal; is associated with decreased dorsiflexion angle and increased…
