Effects of 8-weeks Systematic Corrective Exercise Program in Pronation Distortion Syndrome

"1. Restraint exercise or self-release: will involve the gastrocnemius muscle, soleus muscle, fibula, knee compressor muscles, adductors of the thighs, the short head of the biceps femoris, and iliotibial band for 30 seconds, using a foam roller.~2. Static stretching drills: involving the soleus and gastrocnemius muscles on an inclined plane, tensor fasciae latae muscle, short head of the biceps femoris, and ilio- psoas muscle;~3. Resistance exercises: will consist of strengthening the eccentric muscles of the feet including dorsiflexion and knee inversion, adduction, and extension, external rotation of the hip joint with TheraBand exercise band, and strengthening the intrinsic muscles of the foot.~4. Integrative exercises: including the star balance test on all planes and resistive exercises."

Conventional treatment involved Non biomechanical Functional exercises (NBF), these exercises indicated for the control group consists of dorsal and plantar flexion of the metatarsophalangeal joints in unloading of the subject in a long sitting position on a chair or couch with the knee at 90◦ for a period of eight weeks. Feet will be in hanging position to allow plantar flexion smoothly. The exercises will carry out daily without any kind of resistance for a period of 30s. A total of five series will be completed for each foot. These exercises will be considered as non-therapeutic which might have affected the foot's posture.
