Comparative Effectiveness of Muscle Energy Technique and Trigger Point Release in Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar Fasciitis Clinical Trial

Official title:
Effectiveness of Muscle Energy Technique and Trigger Point Release in Plantar Fasciitis: A Comparative Study

Clinical Trial Summary

Plantar Fasciitis (PF) causes heel pain in patients who have prolonged weight-bearing commonly, and it affects their ability to manage their routine work. By different physical therapy approaches like muscle energy technique (MET) and trigger point release, their pain and foot function would, might improve that would increase their work efficiency. This study aim towards better treatment option in treating PF. Therefore, the objective of this study was to compare the treatment effectiveness of MET and triggers point release in PF. A single blinded, randomized clinical design was conducted. Thirty patients was randomly allocated into two groups. One group received muscle energy technique and the other receive trigger point release, while both groups performed self-stretching exercises as a home plan. Their pain and foot function serve as outcome measure. Treatment was given for 4 weeks, 3 sessions per week.
