Objectives: The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between the general hyper mobility index with foot arch. Design: Descriptive Correlational Design Methods: Fifty healthy female students participated in the study and general hyper mobility and size of foot arch was measured. Results: The results of the study showed that there was a significant relationship between the general hyper mobility and foot arch (r=0/249 p=0/05). Conclusion: The subjects with greater general hypermobility have lesser foot arch. The significant relationship between the general hyper mobility and foot arch may be due to ligament laxity.
