Pronation of the foot is a compound movement that combines abduction, eversion and dorsiflexion. Regarding posture, a pronated foot is one in which the heel bone angles inward and the arch tends to collapse. (A "knock-kneed" person has overly pronated feet). It flattens the arch as the foot strikes the ground in order to absorb the shock when the heel hits the ground and assists in balance during mid-stance.This can lead to foot pain, knee pain, shin splints, achilles tendinitis, posterior tibial tendinitis, piriformis syndrome and plantar fasciitis.
