Active clinical trials for "Fasciitis"

The purpose of this study is to compare the effects of manual therapy and of manual therapy associated with hip strengthening in the recovery of patients with heel pain. Heel pain decreases function, balance, walking and can cause change in the movement pattern. This alterations can induce a deficit in motor control of other structures as knee and hip. There is an importance to compare the effects of manual therapy and manual therapy associated with hip strengthening on the recover of patients with heel pain.

Range of motion at ankle joint and subtalar joint will be assessed before and after utilization of ARM device. The changes in range of motion will be recorded and compared to literature.

This study is designed to assess the effects of socks and bedding materials on foot pain, the level of blood oxygen existing in the feet and quality of sleep in subjects who have chronic foot pain from either diabetic neuropathy or other conditions, e.g., peripheral arterial disease, regenerative joint disease). The three main hypotheses to be tested are: 1)compared to placebo socks, subjects wearing Holofiber socks experience reduction in foot pain, 2)compared to placebo bedding, subjects sleeping in beds lined with a Holofiber mattress pad experience improved quality of sleep and 3) compared to placebo socks, subjects who wear Holofiber socks will have increased blood oxygenation levels in their feet.

This is a prospective, controlled, randomized, blinded and comparative, single-center clinical trial comparing the improvement of patients with recalcitrant plantar fasciitis symptoms that have received standard of care versus treatment with differing amounts of injectable dehydrated human amnion/chorion membrane micrografts(dHACM).

The purpose of this study is to compare the Ankle Dorsiflexion Dynasplint System (DS) to static night splint for the reduction of pain from Plantar Fasciitis (Fasciopathy).

Plantar fasciitis is a very studied pathology and treated with taping. There are studies that assess the effectiveness of Kinesio taping, as well as taping or low-dye taping, few studies that compare the two treatments and assess which is more effective. In the present work the effectiveness of Kinesio taping and taping will be assessed, as well as whether possible differences among intervention effects exist in terms of pain improvement, comfort and durability of the bandage.

to compare the effects of massage gun and transverse friction massage on management of pain and disability in patients with plantar fasciitis.

The purpose of this study is to determine if dry needling both low back and extremity areas is more effective for reducing pain and improving strength, balance and functional performance among patients with chronic musculoskeletal conditions compared to dry needling of extremity areas only.

The purpose of this study is to determine if the addition of acupuncture to a standard of care prescribed exercise program is more effective at improving pain and function in adult patients with plantar fasciosis.

A clinical trial evaluating the effectiveness, safety and patient tolerance for the use of Intense Therapeutic Ultrasound (ITU) for chronic, Plantar Fasciitis musculoskeletal tissue pain reduction began in August 2016 and was completed in April 2017. The clinical setting: University Foot and Ankle Institute, Santa Monica, California, USA; Single-Blinded, pivotal study for chronic plantar fasciitis.
