Subtalar Joint Axis Rotational and Translational Motions During Closed Kinetic Chain Pronation and Supination In this three dimensional animation of the posterior, medial and dorsal view of the weightbearing foot skeleton during closed kinetic chain subtalar joint (STJ) pronation and supination, the STJ axis is noted to undergo significant internal rotation, plantarflexion and medial translation during during pronation. In addition, during STJ supination, the STJ axis undergoes external rotation

Subtalar Joint Anatomy, Pronation, Supination and Neutral Position on Real Foot Skeleton The subtalar joint (STJ) is made up of two bones, the superiorly-located talus, and the inferiorly-located calcaneus. During range of motion of the STJ, the talus and calcaneus glide on one another on their three articular facets, the posterior, middle and anterior facets. During STJ supination, the posterior facet of the talus glides posteriorly and superiorly along the posterior facet of the calcaneus unti

Subtalar Joint Mobilization In this video excerpt, Erik demonstrates one method for mobilizing the subtalar joint. People need functional movement in the subtalar joint to lessen wear and tear and reduce damaging knee, hip, and low back compensation. Pain from plantar fasciitis and medial shin splints often have roots in a dysfunctional talocalcaneal articulation where the talus has glided forward on the calcaneus and become fixated there. Would you like to learn manual techniques to mobilize th

Subtalar Joint Axis Rotational and Translational Motions During Closed Kinetic Chain Pronation and Supination - Sagittal Plane Motion In this three dimensional animation of the medial view of the weightbearing foot skeleton during closed kinetic chain subtalar joint (STJ) pronation and supination, the STJ axis is noted to undergo plantarflexion during pronation and dorsiflexion during supination. As the talus plantarflexes during STJ pronation, note how the STJ axis plantarflexes along with the
