Study Overview
Brief Summary
Pes planus is caused by the elongation of the intrinsic muscles in the medial arch of the foot, causing the arch to approach the ground or the sole of the foot to touch the ground completely.
Detailed Description
For this purpose, in this project, the effectiveness of short foot exercises in water and on land will be compared in young adults with pes planus.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Navicular Drop Test
Time Frame: 6 weeks
It is a clinical assessment used to evaluate the degree of foot pronation or flattening of the medial longitudinal arch during weight bearing. It is commonly used to assess foot pronation, especially the vertical displacement of the navicular bone during weight bearing.
Foot Posture Index
Time Frame: 6 weeks
A widely used method to assess foot posture and classify individuals according to different foot types. Each criterion is scored on a 5-point scale ranging from -2 to +2.
Biodex Balance System
Time Frame: 6 weeks
It is a computerized balance assessment system widely used in clinical and research settings to assess and improve balance and stability. The Biodex Balance System typically consists of a computerized platform with force sensors, visual feedback display and various training modes. It provides quantitative measurements of balance parameters, allowing accurate assessment and monitoring of progress
Secondary Outcomes
