The effect of three different insoles on balance in people with functional ankle instability
نویسندگان
چکیده
Background Functional ankle instability (FAI) has been reported to be associated with sensorimotor deficits which could result in impaired balance [1] and altered foot kinematics [2]. Textured insoles that increase plantar cutaneous afferent information may compensate for a deficit of sensory input in FAI, improving postural control and reduce the risk of injury. Also, a lateral plantar wedge will reduce the external ankle inversion moment and help prevent inappropriate foot inversion motion and perhaps further improve postural control. The aim of this study therefore was to investigate the effect of texture and a lateral wedge on standing balance in people with FAI.

Purpose: Many research studies reported balance disorder as one of the most important consequences of Functional Ankle Instability. However, the Balance Recovery Strategy, which its deficiency can cause poor balance or secondary damages, has not been investigated in previous studies yet. The purpose of this article is to study the Balance Recovery Strategy in athletes with Functional Ankle Inst...
