Q

What are the motions of the foot/ ankle?

A
  • plantarflexion (increase the angle)
  • dorsiflexion (decrease the angle)
  • innversion (sole of foot faces midline of body)
  • eversion (sole of foot faces away from midline of the body)
  • supination (increase the arch of the foot)
  • pronation (decrease the arch of the foot)
