Electrolysis in Patients With Chronic Plantar Fasciitis
Sponsor: Wroclaw University of Health and Sport Sciences
Summary
Aim of the Study The aim of this study is to investigate the differential effects of high-intensity and low-intensity percutaneous electrolysis (PCE) on pain perception and muscle tissue properties in individuals with chronic plantar fasciitis. Research Questions Pain Perception: Does high-intensity PCE induce greater changes in pressure pain threshold (PPT) in the plantar fascia compared to low-intensity PCE in individuals with chronic plantar fasciitis? Muscle Tissue Properties: Does high-intensity PCE reduce stiffness in the plantar fascia to a greater extent than low-intensity PCE in individuals with chronic plantar fasciitis?
