Based on embryological studies, I propose that hyperpronation in the adult [gaiting] foot is the result of an ontogenetic retention of talar torsion [termed talar supinatus] seen during weeks 6pf-8pf in the developing embryo. Clinically, talar supinatus is visualized as an elevation of the medial column of the foot [termed Primus Metatarsus Elevatus], in the standing/neutral positioned foot. I have devised a way to measure PME using microwedges with confirmed high interrator reliability. I have introduced a way to reduce hyperpronation resulting from PME using postural insoles [not orthotics which weaken the feet]. Postural are based on Proprioceptive Feedback Stimulation, and are not used as supportive devices [e.g., arch supports/metatarsal bars or pads, etc].
My work has been accepted for publication [January 2002] in the Journal of Bodywork and Movement Therapy [Harcourt Publishers, Leon Chaitow Editor]. If you would like an electronic [Email] copy [Acrobat Reader 4.0 format], please send me an Email. It is a fairly large file [2.3Mb], so make sure your IP server will forward it to you. Please note: Most free IP servers will not send a file this size to individual mailboxes.

Dr. Rothbart,
I would be VERY interested in reading your study. Please e-mail it to me at Andrew.Ball@ncmail.net. Specifically, I'd be interested in application to pediatric populations, CP and Down Syndrome in particular, and would be most interested on collaboration of future research with both quantitative gait analysis, as well as qualitative components.
