Brief Summary
Postural stability has an important role for functional movements, injury prevention and the performance of many athletic skills. Therefore, it is very important to understand the factors that affect postural stability. The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of lower extremity flexibility on postural stability in healthy individuals.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
Passive straight leg raise test
Test is performed in the supine position. Measurement of hip flexion angle is performed with a universal goniometer at the end point of the movement.
Baseline
Passive ankle dorsiflexion range of motion
During the measurement, individuals are in a supine position. The ankle joint range of motion measurement is performed with a universal goniometer.
Baseline
Postural stability
Biodex Balance System (Biodex Medical Systems, Inc. USA) will be used in the dynamic single leg stance test and sensory integration of balance clinical test evaluations. Lower scores indicate better stability and higher scores mean poor balance.
Baseline
