Summary

Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a common condition in the population. One of the interventions used to resolve this condition is myofascial release (MR), which consists of massages that help reduce pain and increase mobility. MR has shown efficacy when applied for 30 minutes, however, it is necessary to compare it with a 15-minute MR intervention, since in clinical practice optimizing time is essential. Accordingly, the present research seeks to evaluate whether there are differences in the application time of myofascial release in people with PF.

Conditions

  • Plantar Fasciitis of Both Feet

Interventions

OTHER

Myofascial release

Nine myofascial release techniques will be applied to each group: Transverse hamstring play; Transverse hamstring and adductor magnus play: posterior to anterior pressure; Transverse gastrocnemius-soleus play; Tibia bone clearing: posterior tibia; Tibia bone clearing: prone grip with half chisel; Lateral fascial distraction of the tibia; Lateral elongation of the peroneal tissue; Cross-friction of the gastrocnemius-soleus musculotendinous junction; Manipulation of the plantar fascia.
