Effects of J Stroke Myofascial Release in Patients With Planter Fasciitis

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of the study is to compare the effects of j stroke myofascial release on planter fascia versus ischemic release on gastrocnemius in patients with planter fasciitis.

Clinical Trial Description

Planter fasciitis is commonly occur in athletes and females who wear flat shoes. It is caused by the loss of planter fascia flexibility that leads to mechanical overloading of fascial structures. There are some risk factors that are important to consider include age, leg length difference, inadequate footwear, inappropriate walking and running patterns and increased planter fascia thickness. Planter fascia thickness more than 4mm can be considered as an indicative of planter fasciitis. Myofascial soft tissue mobilization is a low load, long duration stretch to the myofascial complex technique that is given in both acute and chronic conditions which in caused by tightness and soft tissue restriction in the patients with planter fasciitis to restore length, decrease pain and to improve function. Cupping therapy on gastrocnemius is a medical technique that applies negative pressure over pain areas and pressure points that alleviates pain and improve blood circulation. it could be low-cost and convenient alternative technique to treat planter fasciitis. ;
