Abstract
Objectives
The objectives of the study were to find effectiveness of conventional therapy, manual therapy in decreasing pain in plantar fasciitis patient, and also to compare the effectiveness of conventional therapy versus manual therapy in decreasing pain in plantar fasciitis patient.
Method
The study was done at physiotherapy OPD , patients diagnosed with plantarfascitis both in male and female having symptoms for at least 4 weeks or more were included in this study. 20 subjects who fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria were equally divided into two groups by purposive method. The total duration of study was 2 weeks. Then they were evaluated for pain and disability using Foot Function Index.
Result
The analysis of significance was carried out by using unpaired t- test to compare the effectiveness of manual therapy (ankle mobilization & myofascial release therapy) on pain as compared to conventional physiotherapy. Results were found to be significant for t- value i.e 2.68 at p-value 0.05.
Conclusion
This study concluded that the manual therapy (ankle mobilization & myofascial release) is more beneficial than conventional physiotherapy to improving the pain in patients with plantar fasciitis.
