The Effects of Five Toed Socks on Motor Neuron Pool Excitability in the Lower Leg

Year: 2011
Type: article
Abstract: between sock conditions for MNPE (P>.05) or for balance (P>.05).Although there were some correlation between peroneus longus H:M ratio and anterior/posterior direction COP velocity in applying FSG (r=-.60,r 2 =.36, P=.02) and between tibialis anterior H:M ratio and anterior/posterior direction COP velocity in applying FS (r=-.63,r 2 =.40, P=.02), it is unable to say if correlations were due to socks or if these physiologic factors are related.Five toed socks with and without textures are not interventions to affect postural control in healthy subjects.Also, changes in MNPE are not likely to be the mechanism of improving balance.
