NCT05754697•Cairo University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

The goal of this clinical trial\] is to compare between the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization and positional release technique in patients with chronic plantar fasciitis The main question\[s\] it aims to answer are: 1. Is there a difference between the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization and positional release technique on pain pressure threshold in patients with chronic plantar fasciitis? 2. Is there a difference between the effect of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization and positional release technique on foot function level in patients with chronic plantar fasciitis?

Detailed Description

Design of the study: Pretest - posttest randomized controlled trial. Subjects selection: Sixty patients their age range from 30-50 years of both genders with chronic plantar fasciitis will participate in this study according to sample size calculation.
