Investigation of the Effects of Textured Insoles and Exercise on Tactile Sense, Balance, Foot Load Distribution and Quality of Life in Children With Joint Hypermobility
Joint hypermobility is the condition that the joints have a greater range of motion than normal and can be observed frequently in children. In children with joint hypermobility, motor problems, tactile and proprioceptive sensory disorders can be observed. It is very important to support children with joint hypermobility with intervention programs that are rich in both motor and sensory aspects. The aim of this project is to create an exercise protocol rich in tactile, proprioceptive senses for children with joint hypermobility and to examine the effects of using textured insoles in addition to exercise on tactile sense, balance, foot load distribution and quality of life in children.
