Biofeedback exercises for flexible flat feet
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 45 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with flexible flat feet (arches that flatten when standing but come back when sitting or on tiptoes).
- You have no history of surgery, broken bones, or psychiatric illness that could affect the results.

Other trials that look related to this one.
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 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 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 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 compares two non-surgical treatments—custom shoe inserts and a foot-strengthening exercise program—to see which one improves running form more in runners with flat feet (pes planus). If you are a recreational runner age 18–30 with flat feet and no recent injuries, you may be able to join.
