Brief Summary:
this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of Graston Technique on Planter Thickness in Patients With Planter Fasciitis
Detailed Description:
Plantar fasciitis PF generally a self-limiting condition is identified as one of the most common causes of heel pain in adults It affects both sedentary and athletic populations
It may be considered that PF emerges due to excessive and prolonged standing or running which causes an acute inflammation or micro-tears and degenerative changes plantar fascia The persistence of these risk factors inhibits the regular repair process thus collagen degeneration occurs causing the structural changes of the plantar fascia Numerous interventions have been described for treatment of PF which include Stretching calf or plantar region which is performed with the patient stands with staggered legs facing toward a wall with both hands stretched out The Graston technique can break up scar tissue and restore soft tissue The Graston technique is a type of manual therapy in which patented stainless-steel instruments are used to restore soft tissue motion by breaking up scar tissue fifty patients with planter fasciitis will be assigned randomly to two equal groups first one will receive graston technique in addition to exercise program the second one will receive exercise program only for six weeks
