Post to RF deformity
How do you post for valgus/varus deformity?
Balance separately for varus and valgus
How do you post for FF 3 valgus and RF 5 Varus
As sits - because they are withing 2º of each other
if you have 3 º FF varus and 7º RF valgus how do you post?
In this case you will need to post separately because they are not within 2º of each other
LMJA compensation for FF and RF valgus
LMJA always goes to end ROM no matter what degree deformities we have and then STJ have to pronate

Increased calcaneal inclination angle can lead to
Pes Cavus

*Heel lift ( only for bony not for soft tissue )
*stretching ( for soft tissue
