    Challenging the foundations of the clinical model of foot function

    I believe you are correct in your statement. However, there are still a POM of the MTJ of each of your structures (exception: flat feet). This is...

    Challenging the foundations of the clinical model of foot function

    I have to challenge this, because while embryology is impportant to our overall understanding, it is not the key to foot function. After some 30...

    Have Biomechanics Become An Afterthought In Podiatry?

    Allow me to clarify: I believe it is the ROM that speaks to overpronation. The axis of the joint is what changes. The greater the degree deviates...

    Have Biomechanics Become An Afterthought In Podiatry?

    This is the biggest mistake I see. Most all generic orth help, because they minimize pronation motion. For some that may be 100% resolution....
