Foot gymnastics are games and exercises intended to strengthen the muscles of legs and feet, improve the motion sequences of walking and sports, support therapy of varicose veins[citation needed] and dorsal pain. Such activities are recommended to improve flat feet especially of children[1] and the gait performance of older adults.[2]
