Body awareness therapy for flat feet
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests whether basic body awareness therapy can help people with flexible flat feet (when the foot arch flattens under weight but returns when not standing). If you have flat feet without other foot problems, you may qualify.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- You have flexible flat feet, meaning your arch drops at least 10 mm and your foot makes an arch when you stand on your toes.
- You have not had treatment or used special shoe inserts for flat feet before.
- You have not had a lower leg or foot injury in the past 6 months.
- You are not pregnant and do not have serious health conditions like diabetes or nerve disorders.

This study tests if special exercises with biofeedback (a tool that helps you see muscle activity) can improve flexible flat feet. It may help you if you have flat feet that are not fixed in position.
This study tests whether releasing the plantar fascia, a band of tissue under the foot, combined with simple foot exercises can improve movement and reduce foot-related issues in young adults with flat feet (pes planus). It may help you move better and feel more comfortable.
This trial looks at whether using a foot brace (an orthosis) plus exercises can improve symptoms from flat feet. It may help by changing how your foot and heel work when you stand or walk.
This study compares two ways to help runners with flat feet: using custom shoe inserts (orthotics) versus doing foot-strengthening exercises. The goal is to see which approach improves how your feet, knees, and hips move while running, which may help prevent injuries.
This study tests whether wearing special shoe inserts (called orthoses) can quickly change the stiffness and flexibility of foot muscles in people with flat feet. It may help understand how foot supports can improve comfort and function.
This study tests simple foot exercises to see if they can reduce knee pain, improve balance, and boost quality of life in people who have flexible flat feet. You would do these exercises at home, and the goal is to see if strengthening the small muscles in your feet helps your knees feel better.
