Pigeon toeing, or in-toeing, is a walking pattern where a child’s feet turn inward instead of pointing straight ahead. It is commonly seen in young children and can be part of normal development, but in some cases may affect balance, coordination, or confidence.
At The Foot Clinics, we assess in-toeing across Albury, Wodonga and Wagga Wagga, helping families understand whether it is part of normal growth or something that may benefit from support.
In-toeing refers to a walking pattern where the feet point inward. It may originate from the hips, knees, or feet, depending on the child’s development.
