Magnetic stimulation for flat feet: effects on arch and strength
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests whether magnetic stimulation of foot muscles can improve the arch of the foot and muscle strength in adults with flat feet. If you have flat feet without major leg or health problems, this trial may help find a new way to strengthen your feet.

This study looks at how wearing foot supports (called orthoses) for a short time affects the muscles in your feet if you have flat feet. It may help doctors understand which supports work best for comfort and function.
This study tests whether a simple treatment—releasing the plantar fascia (a band of tissue on the bottom of the foot) combined with foot exercises—can improve movement quality in young adults with flat feet. It aims to help you move better and feel more stable.
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.
This study tests whether a special movement-based technique can help reduce flat feet in school-age children. Flat feet can affect how kids walk and play, and this therapy may help improve foot arch height.
This study looks at whether people with flat feet have differences in their diaphragm (a breathing muscle), balance, and foot pressure compared to people with normal arches. It may help understand how flat feet affect overall movement and stability.
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.
