In the studies carried out to date; The comparison of the effectiveness of stretching exercises and Extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT), the comparison of ESWT therapy and ultrasound therapy, the comparison of manual therapy methods and stretching exercises were studied. The effects of the use of double air cushion shoes and exercise therapy on pain management and functional status were investigated.

In this study, in addition to the evaluation of pain and functionality; joint range of motion, muscle performance and quality of life are the distinguishing features of the study. That's why researcher came up with the idea to work on this topic. This study will shed light on future studies and will contribute to the literature in the treatment of this diagnosis group.
