Who can participate

Healthy volunteers accepted: Yes

Only the study team can determine whether someone qualifies for participation.

Inclusion criteria

  • Participants who came to the clinic presenting with pain in both heels and who were diagnosed with active or latent myofascial trigger point in bilateral flexor digitorum brevis muscles.
  • Myofascila trigger points of flexor digitorum brevis were the only ones diagnosed in the foot.
  • All participants with normal body mass, without obesity.

Exclusion criteria

  • Diagnosis of lower limb injury, such as plantar fasciitis, tendinopathy, bursitis, ligamentous injuries.
  • History of previous lower limb surgery.
  • Participants will not be subjected to ankle stretching or any other treatment.
  • Diabetes due to possible elevation of plantar pressure.
  • Toe deformities such as hammertoes and hallux valgus due to possible alteration of plantar pressure.

Treatment and study plan

Pressure release

Other

Release of pre-pressure at the latent trigger point of flexor digitorum brevis

Non emision Laser

Other

Non emision laser in Flexor digitorum brevis latent trigger point

Primary outcomes

  1. Variables of plantar pressures with platform before non-emission laser

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimetre.

  2. Variables of plantar pressures with platform before pressure release

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimetre.

  3. Variable footprint planting surface with platform before non-emission laser

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the area of the footprint in square centimetres.

  4. Variable footprint plantar surface with platform before pressure release

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimetre.

  5. Variables of plantar pressures with platform after non-emission laser

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimetre.

  6. Variables of plantar pressures with platform after preassure release

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the plantar pressure variables in grams per square centimetre.

  7. Variable footprint planting surface with platform after non-emission laser

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the area of the footprint in square centimetres.

  8. Variable footprint planting surface with platform after pressure release

    Time frame: Through study completion, an average of 2 days

    For 30 seconds we will record the area of the footprint in square centimetres.
