Foot biomechanics

Foot biomechanics refers to how the structures of the foot—like bones, muscles, ligaments, and tendons—work together to support movement and balance. When you walk or run, your foot absorbs shock, provides stability, and allows for efficient motion. Proper foot function involves a balance of flexibility and strength, ensuring that each part, from the arch to the toes, works harmoniously. Understanding foot biomechanics is important for preventing injuries and optimizing performance in activities like sports or daily tasks, as it can influence posture, gait, and overall health.
