Balance and plantar sensitivity

This book describes the characteristics and relationship between plantar sensitivity and balance in the standing posture of athletes who practise barefoot sports, athletes who practise with footwear, and non-athletes, in conditions with and without visual information and with and without footwear. Supporting its discussions are issues related to the specifics of sports training and its possible effects on postural control and sensitivity in the soles of the feet of athletes from different sports, but who have characteristics of barefoot training and require body control.
