Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increased walking speed through the walk test of 10 meters. It is timed walking time 10 meters, discarding the first and last meter , and then calculates the speed in meters per second . There was a decrease of 0.15 m / s at the speed of those who made the intervention.;For plantar sensitivity was assessed six areas of the sole of the foot with the monofilament Semmens -Weinstein . Sensitivity improved in the intervention group increasing sensitivity to the filaments .;For ankle muscle strength , was evaluated through a dynamometer strength of plantiflexores and dorsiflexors . The equipment measures the force in Newton and there was no significant difference in the intervention group after treatment.;For static equilibrium used to balance the platform, calculates the displacement body area for 30 seconds. They were repeated three times and then the average of the values ??made ??. There was no difference in the size of the scroll area afterwards. | — |
