One of the pathologies most studied and treated with kinesiotape (KT) is plantar fasciitis (PF). In most of the studies reviewed, it is concluded that there is an improvement in the symptoms of PF when treated with KT: either combined with other therapies or as a single treatment compared to placebo. However, most current studies have limitations because the sample is small, the effect size is small, and the evidence is insufficient or of low quality. In the present work, the aim is to study the effectiveness of KT in PF, and to compare the results with those obtained in a placebo group, which is treated with tape. The researchers will assess the decrease in symptoms prior to performing other definitive treatments. In addition, the variability of the painful symptoms and the durability of the bandage will be studied, in order to determine whether it can be used in the short or long period of time, being able to take it into account and supposing a supplement to the pharmacological treatment.
The objective of this study is to investigate the effects of Virtual Reality and Motor Imagery along with Routine Physical Therapy in motor function and balance in patients with Parkinson disease.
To explore effects of Autologous Blood Injection versus Platelet Rich plasma injection for treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis
The purpose of this research is to translate Foot and Ankle Disability Index in Urdu and determine the validity and reliability in patients with plantar fasciitis and correlate IT with Quality of Life Short Form-36 and the Visual Analog Scale.
RCT with two arms: (1) stretch fascia plantaris (6 weeks, n=30) (2) control (n=30); Outcome parameters: ROM ankle and first toe; visco-elastic behaviour of the fascia plantaris determined by means of myotonometry Study protocol: Outcome parameters were evaluated before and after the intervention/control with a 6 weeks interval. All participants were screened bilaterally and for the participants assigned to the intervention group stretching was only performed on the dominant side
Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common cause of heel pain. Among the several conservative treatment options, Extracorporeal Shock Wave Therapy (ESWT) is considered the standard treatment. Recent studies suggest that PF may be sustained by a myofascial impairment proximal to the pain area with a biomechanical disequilibrium of the entire lower limb and pelvis. Therefore, by combining the concepts of Fascial Manipulation and ESWT, the purpose of this open label randomized controlled clinical trial is to evaluate the effectiveness of the ESWT on myofascial trigger points of lower limb in a sample of subjects with PF. Patients with PF were randomly assigned to an Experimental treatment Group (EG), treated with focused ESWT on myofascial points, and a Control Group (CG), treated with the focused ESWT traditional approach on the medial calcaneal tubercle. Outcome measures included the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score (FAOS) and the Italian Foot Functional Index (17-iFFI). The assessment was made before the first session(baseline-T1), immediately before the second session (T2), immediately before the third session (T3), at 1month (T4) and 4 months' follow-up (T5). Thirty patients who satisfied inclusion and exclusion criteria were enrolled.
This proof of concept and feasibility study will adopt a mixed methods approach. The primary objectives will be to assess participants' acceptance and usability of a package of self-help videos for Plantar Fasciitis designed to be accessed shortly after suitable participants are referred to the podiatry service, and also the feasibility of conducting a future randomised controlled trial. The secondary objectives will be to assess the effects of the intervention on pain and quality of life.
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.
study was conducted to check the effectiveness of graston on patients with chronic plantar fasciitis. After screening from inclusion exclusion criteria.Data will be randomly divided in two groups. Graston assisted release of plantar fascia is used for soft tissue mobilization. Pain level using NPRS, score on FADI and dorsiflexion restriction using LUNGE test will be performed before any treatment.
