Abstract
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of two different rigid foot orthotic devices in controlling subtalar joint subluxation and pronation. A high-speed video analysis system was used to record, store, and analyze data from seven runners: 1) barefoot, 2) shoes only, 3) shoes and vertical orthoses, and 4) shoes with 25 degrees inverted orthotic devices. The results indicate the need for suitable studies, on a larger population group, to evaluate the effect of a variety of orthotic devices on running biomechanics.Keywords
