Official title

Comparison of the Effects of Standard and Resisted Protocols of Toe Spread Out Exercise on Hallux Valgus Angle, Muscular Activation, Balance and Physical Performance in Individuals with Hallux Valgus.

Overview

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of 8 weeks of supervised in addition to stretching exercise resisted concentric and eccentric contraction protocol of toe spread out exercise on the angular severity of hallux valgus deformity, changes in the cross-sectional area, stiffness and thickness of the abductor hallucis muscle, electromyographic activities, plantar pressure distribution, foot morphology and gait characteristics, balance and physical performance at the end of the medium and long term.
