Summary

this study will be conducted to investigate the efficacy of combining foam roller and gastrocnemius release on pain intensity level, dorsi flexion range of motion of ankle joint ,dorsi flexion range of motion of big toe and foot function in subjects with plantar fasciitis.

Conditions

  • Plantar Fascitis

Interventions

OTHER

gastrocnemius release

The patient will be prone to lying and the therapist will stand at the side of the patient's leg. The therapist uses both hands in cross-hand pattern (Figure 10a and 10b). Myofascial Release will be performed for 20 repetitions, then gastrocnemius release by foam roller;This involved long sitting, with the affected leg will be extended on the foam roller and foot relaxed. The non-affected leg will be flexed at knee so that the foot will be rested on the floor. The participants will be instructed to use their arms and non\_affected foot to propel their body back and forth from the popliteal fossa to Achilles tendon in continuous motion. then patients perform plantar fascia realise from standing by foam roller

OTHER

conventional treatment

the patients will receive conventional treatment in the form of ultrasound therapy (continuous mode/1MHZ) followed by plantar fascia stretch and inctruction
