defective position of the foot, flat feet in children, movement interventionAbstract
The presented work deals with the topic of defective foot position in a preschool child and the possibilities of its correction. It takes the form of a case study, presenting the case of a preschool boy with a defective leg position and the content and results of the intervention that resulted in an improvement. The basis of the intervention was movement therapy, the potential benefits of which are often underestimated in practice, but a necessary condition for achieving them is the motivation of the child and his parents to carry it out regularly and methodically correctly.
