Children who continue to walk on their tiptoes after developing a heel-toe gait normally are diagnosed with idiopathic toe walking (ITW). The study's aim was to investigate the effects of serial casting and physical therapy on joint range of motion (ROM), toe walking severity, functional health and health-related quality of life, walking balance, and satisfaction from treatment in ITW, in comparison with the control group.
