Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The foot intrinsic muscles are increasingly targeted in foot and ankle rehabilitation. The exercises are often difficult to learn initially. The purpose of the proposed study is to examine the effect training the intrinsic foot muscles on performance in selected physical and functional measures such as balance, plantar pressure during gait, vertical jump, and foot posture. In addition,the investigators will compare one group training with traditional exercise instruction methods and one group using an adjunctive modality (neuromuscular electric stimulation) during the introductory phases of exercise instruction. The investigators are interested in how this modality might affect physical and functional outcome measures and if it affects participants' frustration with learning a new exercise.
