Abstract/Notes

A review of current concepts of etiology, diagnosis and chiropractic treatment of pes planus was conducted in consideration that this condition is one of the most prevalent disorders affecting the foot. According to general understanding, pes planus may be due to either congenital or acquired causes, which are prone to progressive development of foot malfunction and pain unless properly managed. It is concluded that conservative chiropractic treatment of pes planus is the initial therapy of choice.
