It is also a part of functional chains and disorders in the foot function may induce changes at all levels of locomotion apparatus including its controlling component. It is therefore necessary to examine the foot within the complex kinesiology analysis. The aim of the contribution is to briefly describe selected examination procedures, which the authors recommend for application in daily practice of physiotherapist and physician for a rapid and easy diagnostics of the foot function.
