Flat Feet (Pes Planus)
Flat feet, also called pes planus or fallen arches, is a condition in which the arch of the foot collapses, with the entire sole of the foot coming into complete or near-complete contact with the ground. In some individuals (an estimated 20-30% of the general population) the arch simply never develops in one foot (unilaterally) or both feet (bilaterally). It should be noted that being flatfooted does not decrease footspeed; flat feet do not affect one's response to the Plantar reflex test.
A soft, flexible arch pad will give support to the arch, yet still permit flexibility and motion. As a result, the arches strengthen and the foot will grow stronger.
