A systematic review of the effect of footwear, foot orthoses and taping on lower limb muscle activity during walking and running (2019)
Journal Article

Background:
External devices are used to manage musculoskeletal pathologies by altering loading of the foot, which could result in altered muscle activity that could have therapeutic benefits.

Objectives:
To establish if evidence exists that f... Read More about A systematic review of the effect of footwear, foot orthoses and taping on lower limb muscle activity during walking and running.
