Long-Term Use of Anti-Pronation Insoles Enhances Inter-Joint Coordination in Individuals With Flat Feet. [PDF]
J Foot Ankle ResABSTRACT Background Flatfoot alters lower limb biomechanics and can negatively affect interjoint coordination during gait. Antipronation insoles are commonly prescribed to correct excessive foot pronation, yet their long‐term effects on interjoint coordination remain unclear.
