|
Objectives: To evaluate the effect of foot orthotic in patient with chronic pain and pelvic obliquity in standing.
Methods: Four cases of functional spinal scoliosis, were investigated for the changes in the calcaneal stance position angle, pelvic height, pelvic angle, Cobb`s angle and walking pattern. Standing full spine X-ray for measuring the pelvic height, pelvic angle, Cobb`s angle were checked before and after application of foot orthosis. The foot orthosis was composed of polyprophylen and chamude cover.
Results: 1. There was no change in resting calcaneal stance position. 2. Difference of pelvic height and pelvic angle was reduced after application of a foot orthosis. 3. Cobb`s angle in 2 cases was reduced after application of a foot orthosis. 4. Walking balance was improved. 5. Visual analogue scale was decreased.
Conclusions: The study showed that foot orthosis seemed to be effective for chronic pain, spinal curve, pelvic obliquity and walking balance.
