Do You Have Flat Feet and Foot Pain? Earn up to $70
Volunteers are needed for a research study to examine a new device designed to strengthen the small muscles in your feet.
If you are 18-30 years old and have flat feet and foot pain, you may qualify to participate in this study.
As a participant, you will be assigned to either a control group or an exercise group where you will use a new foot strengthening exercise device for about five minutes each day for six weeks. This study also requires two laboratory visits, during which we will ask you to complete questionnaires about how your feet feel and any pain you experience, take measurements of your feet and ask you to complete balance and walking tasks.
If you complete the study, you may be eligible for up to $70.
