The effect of foot orthoses on muscle activity and morphology, foot biomechanics and skin sensitivity
Foot orthoses with a medial wedge or medial arch support are commonly used to treat musculoskeletal pathologies by altering external forces applied to the foot, which could consequently alter internal forces generated by muscles. However, little is known about whether systematic changes in foot …
