Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
8° incline shoe
The shoe is inclined from front to back and from top to bottom of 8 °. This causes a controlled and an eccentric contraction during the passage.
During the walk we will have:
In support tardigrade : an ankle dorsiflexion with a stretching the Achilles tendon (eccentric contractions).
In support digitigrade: plantar flexion of ankle with a muscle contraction of triceps surae (concentric contraction).
8° incline shoe
Wearing inclined shoes for 6 weeks, walking 15 minutes (2 times/day).
The shoe is inclined from front to back and from top to bottom of 8 °. This causes a controlled and an eccentric contraction during the passage.
During the walk we will have:
In support tardigrade : an ankle dorsiflexion with a stretching the Achilles tendon (eccentric contractions).
In support digitigrade: plantar flexion of ankle with a muscle contraction of triceps surae (concentric contraction).
kinesitherapy
The patient performs its home therapy and consults his physiotherapist once a week according to the protocol Stanish
kinesitherapy
Daily eccentric contraction at home and once per week for 6 weeks with the physiotherapist
