Toe and foot drag treatment
Toe drag
Toe drag meaning – As you reach toe-off when the toe leaves the ground after a step, rather than the foot recuperating under the glute before the following step the foot will remain down under the opposing knee and scratch the ground before connecting. This keeps the knee in a stretched situation all through the swing phase. Our toe drag treatment may take some time, but when it is used properly it can help create very powerful and effective athletes.
When your toe drag you make a low foot recuperation which permits the foot to recover and return to the ground more rapidly. Unlike the upstanding period of running where a short contact time is needed, in the speeding upstage, a more extended contact time is required to make enough power to beat inertia and increase speed. Another benefit of toe drag is more of an outcome rather than a purpose. When you use Rinella Prosthetics & Orthotics’ toe drag treatment, it makes a lower foot recovery, and a longer ground contact to improve your capacity to make power.
Foot Drag
We also provide an acceptable foot drag treatment; When patients attempt to walk, they incline to drag the foot along the ground. They further compensate for it by lifting the knee higher than expected. Foot drag can be the indication of a significant hidden issue, as opposed to a basic inability to raise the foot. It tends to be brought about by a nerve injury, spinal or cerebrum issue, or muscle issue. Foot drag can influence both feet and can be permanent or temporary.
In some patients with foot drag, physical therapists suggest a treatment system that incorporates electrical stimulations of the nerves and muscle strands. This creates electrical driving forces inside the muscles and can, to an extent, help increment the tone and the contractility.
