Plantar Fascitis Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization on Gastrocnemius and Achilles Tendon in Plantar Fasciitis
Aim of this study is to compare the effects of instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization on gastrocnemius and Achilles tendon on pain,range of motion and foot disability.A randomized control trial that will include total 32 participants and divided into two groups.Patients in Group A will receive instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization of gastrocnemius and Group B will receive instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization of Achilles tendon. While conventional therapy will be given to both groups.Data collected will be analyzed through SPSS 25.
Plantar fasciitis is typical condition that produces pain in the medial longitudinal arch of the foot.Repetitive traction stresses on the plantar fascia at its origin over the distal calcaneus obesity, the makeup of the feet, and lifestyle choices are all factors that might contribute to the development of PF. Physiotherapy interventions includes stretching the gastrocnemius and soleus,dry needling, IASTM (instrument assisted soft tissue mobilisation), exercise therapy, ultrasound therapy, iontophoresis, laser therapy, splints, and taping.Use of Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Massage has increased in popularity, and the plantar fascia is a superficial tissue that may benefit from this treatment.The Graston Technique Instrument-assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation not only increases blood flow and tissue healing to the area as well as breaking up soft tissue restrictions along with increase fibroblasts, mast cell production and phagocytes. Previous literature were limited in sample size, and only immediate effects of these techniques were studied But this study opted for the long term use of graston technique on gastrocnemius in comparison on Achilles tendon. So the purpose of this study is to compare the effects of Graston technique instrument assisted soft tissue mobilization at gastrocnemius and Achilles tendon in patients with planter fascitis. It will add to the growing body of knowledge that if same technique on different soft tissues will yield comparable outcomes,which should be the alternate choice of therapy ;
