Abstract

The distal part of the lower extremity, foot and ankle joint, has an essential role to control postural balance through coordinated movements. The role of co-contraction between ankle dorsiflexor and plantar flexor muscles in maintaining postural balance has been mostly focused on previous researches [1,2]. However, the ankle strategy for postural control primarily occurs through eversion and inversion effort to keep the foot stable on the ground [3]. The current study aimed to investigate the relationship between isometric muscle strength ratio of eversion/ inversion (E/I) and postural balance control which is firstly corrected by ankle joint strategy.
