All trials for Flatfoot All trials of Bilateral dry needling in latent trigger points of the Flexor digitorum Brevis Muscle All trials of Bilateral non emission Laser in latent trigger points of the Flexor digitorum Brevis Muscle
-Summary
Thirty-six subjects randomly distributed between a dry needling intervention group and a control group whose intervention is a non-emission laser. All the subjects will be measured before and after the interventions of each group. The measurements will be made on a pressure platform to record the dynamic footprint variables.

+Detailed description
Thirty-six subjects randomly distributed between a dry needling intervention group and a control group whose intervention is a non-emission laser. All the subjects will be measured before and after the interventions of each group. The measurements will be made on a pressure platform to record the dynamic footprint variables of the first step of both feet.
