High Arch Flat Foot

The direction someone’s feet point when they walk can say a lot about their lower body mobility. Toeing out puts the hip into external rotation and limits internal in puts the hip into internal rotation and limits external limitations in motion at the hip can change the way someone’s foot looks. The foot will often be positioned to make up for the motion the hip does not have. A turned out foot may show with a flattened arch (pronation/Internal rotation) to make up for the lack of hip internal rotation.A turned in foot may show with a high arch (supination/external rotation) to make up for the lack of hip external rotation. Regaining limited hip motion can help recover foot a high arch work on squatting because it restores hip a flatfoot work on hinging because it restores hip IR. #physicaltherapist #physicaltherapists #strengthcoach
