Background: Age progression is associated with impaired postural control and thus increased risk of falls. There is little evidence that short-term stimulation of plantar skin afferents in institutionalized older adults would have a positive impact on postural control.Purpose: The objective of this study was to observe the effects of a short-term multimodal physical activity program on postural control (CP), plantar skin sensitivity (PCS), and general physical fitness (GPC) in institutionalized seniors benefiting from stimulation of plantar skin afferents through barefoot practice. A comparison with shod subjects who do not benefit from this increased stimulation of plantar skin sensitivity has also been put in place.Method: The study was c...
