Highlighted claims
- An everted calcaneus and dorsiflexed first ray can limit big toe extension through passive insufficiency because tissues are already elongated. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
- An everted calcaneus can push the first ray into the ground and make it dorsiflex because ground contact drives it upward. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
- An inverted calcaneus and plantarflexed first ray can limit big toe extension because bottom-of-foot tissues are shortened or engaged and may not release enough. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
- If the calcaneus is inverted, intervention should drive calcaneal eversion. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
- Intervention moves the calcaneus toward the opposite strategy from the one currently being used after proximal influences are addressed. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
- An inverted calcaneus may plantarflex the first ray to create an arch and reduce ankle sprain risk. — Toe Touch, Big Toe Extension, and Snoring
