The purpose of this study is to measure and analyze the changes of walking balance, foot area, and maximum foot area in male university students walking who are treated with Feldenkrais(feldenkrais group, n=7) and those who received no treatment(control group, n=11)and the results are as follows: The left and right walking balance, after eight weeks of treatment, decreased by 9.56% and 5.84%, respectively in the experimental group and increased by 0.87% and 0.78% in the control group, respectively, without statistical significance. The left and right foot area, after eight weeks of treatment, decreased by 0.62% and 1.67%, respectively in the experimental group and by 0.87% and 4.19% in the control group, respectively, without statistical significance. The maximum foot pressure, after eight weeks of treatment, increased by 7.21% at both side in the experimental group and by 3.76% and 2.67% in the control group, respectively, without statistical significance. These results showed that Feldenkrais treatment have a positive effect on male college students by enhancing their walking balance and improving their maximum foot pressure.
