Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
The intervention consists of foot mobility techniques designed to improve joint mobility and overall foot function. These techniques will be applied bilaterally. The study employs a randomized controlled trial design, with participants randomly allocated to either the experimental group (receiving the intervention) or the control group (receiving no treatment during the intervention period).
Participants are assessed at three time points:
Baseline (M0): Before the intervention. Immediately Post-Intervention (M1). Follow-Up (M2): 24 hours after the intervention.
The primary outcomes include:
Changes in plantar pressure distribution and postural control as measured by a baropodometric platform.
Balance performance assessed through the Y-Balance Test. Navicular height variation evaluated using the Navicular Drop Test. Anterior functional reach, measured by Functional Reach Test. The study focuses on identifying measurable improvements in functional and biomechanical parameters that may enhance clinical approaches to foot health and rehabilitation. By targeting a young and healthy population, the research aims to establish a foundation for further studies in other age groups and clinical conditions. This work aims to contribute to evidence-based practices in manual therapy and foot biomechanics.
