Short Term Effects of Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilization versus Compressive Myofascial Release in Adults with Plantar Fasciitis.
Background: Manual soft-tissue techniques are frequently used for plantar fasciitis, but direct comparative evidence for instrument-assisted and manual compressive approaches is limited. Objective: To compare the short-term effects of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization (IASTM) and compressive myofascial rele...
