Foot And Ankle Proprıoceptıve Exercıse Program
Sponsor: Ankara University
Summary
This study will be conducted to evaluate whether the foot and ankle proprioceptive exercise program contributes to foot posture, physical performance and fall incidence in geriatric individuals. Through this research, as a result of physiological changes that occur as age increases, foot posture and physical performance in geriatric individuals are negatively affected, and the incidence of falls increases, causing injuries. It is expected to achieve changes in foot posture, physical performance and fall incidence with the foot and ankle proprioceptive exercise program in geriatric individuals.
