“…Many researchers have performed studies to compare the effectiveness of reducing plantar pressure with different materials (Leber and Evanski, 1986) and shoe inserts (Chiu and Wang, 2007;Lee and Hong, 2005;Tsung et al, 2004). Schwellnus et al (1990) reported that neoprene insoles can significantly reduce the incidence of tibial stress syndrome through better shock absorption.…”

Orthotics and other types of shoe inserts are primarily designed to reduce injury and improve comfort. The interaction between the plantar surface of the foot and the load bearing surface contributes to foot and surface deformations and hence to perceived comfort, discomfort or pain. The plantar shapes of 16 participants' feet were captured when standing on three support surfaces that had different cushioning properties in the mid-foot region. Foot shape deformations were quantified using 3D laser scans. A questionnaire was used to evaluate the participant's perceptions of perceived shape and perceived feeling. The results showed that the structure in the mid-foot can change shape, independent of the rear-foot and forefoot regions. Participants were capable of identifying the shape changes with distinct preferences towards certain shapes. The cushioning properties of the mid-foot materials also have a direct influence on perceived feelings. This research has strong implications for the design and material selection of orthotics, insoles and footwear.

“…Thus, it is recommended, especially for flexible pes planus, to use inner arch lifting bands during training or performances to overcome the posterior tibial tendon dysfunction with pes During landing the active maximum force was significantly lower for the x-shaped band and the linear-shaped band than for no band (Lee & Hong, 2005). The flexive impulse, as well, was significantly lower for the x-shaped band and the linear-shaped band than for no band (Chen, 2011;Chiu & Wang, 2007).…”

Objective: The purpose of this research was to establish the differences of ground reaction force variables and sensations according to the foot types and the structures of the inner arch support band during 2 nd vertical ballet jump.Method: 12 Female ballet majors in their twenties who have danced for more than 10 years and had no injuries were selected for this research. Independent variables consist of the foot type (pes rectus, pes planus) and the structure of the inner arch support band (no band, x-shaped, linear shaped). Dependent variables consist of ground reaction force variables and relative wearing sensation.Results: The impact decreased the most when x-shaped bands were used on pes rectus and rigid pes planus. When linear-shaped bands were used on flexible pes planus, the impact decreased. Conclusion:The bands also helped reduce the impact on pes rectus. Furthermore, it is clear that according to the foot type, the impact reducing band structures perform differently. The inner arch support bands were necessary for jump training for any foot type.

“…In contrast, the present results disagreed with the findings reported by Tsung et al 27 , Guldemond 28 and Kelly and Winson 29 who showed that the use of insoles could reduce plantar pressures, especially in the forefoot region of different populations. It should be emphasized that the previously mentioned studies had no standardized customization process, type of material or insole thickness, factors which could influence shock absorption 28,30 , thus hampering the comparison of results. It is understood, then, that any baropodometric data should be interpreted with caution, as suggested by Oliveira et al 20 .…”
