this study will be conducted to investigate the effect of Graston Technique on Planter Thickness in Patients With Planter Fasciitis

Conditions

  • Plantar Fascitis

Interventions

OTHER

Garston technique

the patients will receive instrumented assisted soft tissue mobilization using the Graston technique, which includes the application of a cream to the posterior calf and plantar foot from the knee to the toes to reduce friction on the skin. The Graston tools will be used to mobilize the tissues of the triceps surae and plantar foot bypassing the tools along the leg and foot
