- Conditions
- Healthy Subjects
- Interventions
- Other: Morton extension
- Registration Number
- NCT06526715
- Lead Sponsor
- Mayuben Private Clinic
- Brief Summary
The aim of this study is to simulate the orthopedic treatment called Morton's extension on flat foot patients to check balance effects in standing position.
- Detailed Description
The objective of this study is to perform an assimilation of the orthopedic treatment called morton extension on flat foot patients to verify the balance with stabilometry study.
