Brief Summary:
Plantar fasciitis is a common musculoskeletal disorder characterized by inflammation of the plantar fascia, causing heel pain and discomfort. Various treatment modalities have been explored to alleviate symptoms, with Radial Shockwave Therapy (RST) and Graston Instrument-Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (IASTM) emerging as promising interventions.This study aims to compare the effectiveness of these two treatments in managing plantar fasciitis. RST offers a non-invasive alternative for individuals suffering from plantar fasciitis particularly crucial for patients who prefer conservative treatments or want to explore less invasive options before considering surgery also stimulate the body's natural healing processes by promoting blood flow and tissue regeneration.
Detailed Description:
Study Design will be randomized clinical trial. Study setting will be Sehat medical complex Lahore. Study Duration will be 4 months after synopsis approval Sample size will be 40 calculated by Epitool ,intervention group will be Group A: Radial Shock Therapy(RST) , Group B: Graston Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization (GIASTM). Purposive sampling technique will be implanted. Both genders (male/female).Age 20 to 45 years, Pre-diagnosed with chronic plantar fasciitis, Heel pain will be included. Patients with rheumatoid arthritis, osteoporosis and ankle and foot bursitis were excluded. VAS scale (visual analogue scale), Foot function index (FFI), 12-Item Short-Form Health Survey and goniometer will be data collection tools. SPSS version 25 will be used for statistical analysis. Shapiro-wilks test for normality will be used to assess the normality of the data after which it will be decided either parametric or non-parametric test will be used within and across the group.
