RESUMO

Background: Plantar fasciitis is now known as plantar fasciosis or fasciopathy [PF], is a common foot pain disorder in athletes and non-athletes. There is a pain along plantar side of the foot especially in heel and at the site of insertion of the fascia


Objective: To determine the effectiveness of manual physical therapy in management of plantar fasciopathy


Methods: Referred patients of plantar fasciopathy filled a self-reported questionnaire, containing the Foot and Ankle Ability Measure [FAAM] and the Numeric Pain Rating Scale [NPRS]. All measures were taken at baseline and at 6 weeks follow up. Treatment of PF in term of pain and function was measured with paired sample T-test


Result: Thirty [30] eligible patients [mean age 45.63 years [+/-SD10.81]; 73.3% female] signed the consent form. The manual physical therapy group showed clinically sensitive and significant progress in term of pain and function over group II of ultrasound and exercise. The group I showed clinically significant results in terms of FAAM [CI: 3.171, 2.08] [p=0.001] after 6 weeks follow up. The group I also showed clinically significant improvment in terms of NPRS [CI: 0.861, 2.07], [p=0.001] after 6 weeks follow up


Conclusion: The result of our study showed that manual physical therapy [MPT] is an effective treatment approach in treatment of plantar fasciopathy
