Brief Summary

In this study we will test the effects of pressure release on the Flexor digitorum brevis muscle on the plantar pressures variables using a pressure platform.

Conditions

Manual Therapy; Myofascial Pain Syndrome; Foot; Flat Foot

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (8)

• Variables of plantar pressures with platform before non-emission laser

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

  Through study completion, an average of 2 days

• Variables of plantar pressures with platform before pressure release

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

  Through study completion, an average of 2 days

• Variable footprint planting surface with platform before non-emission laser

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

  Through study completion, an average of 2 days

• Variable footprint plantar surface with platform before pressure release

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

Study Arms (2)

Pressure release

EXPERIMENTAL

Application of pressure release as a trigger point treatment of the flexor digitorum brevis muscle. Performing 3 pressure cycles until the disappearance of the referred pain for a minimum of 90 seconds.

Other: Pressure release

Non-emision Laser

SHAM COMPARATOR

Application of a non-emitting laser for 5 minutes.

Other: Non emision Laser

Interventions

Pressure release OTHER

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

Pressure release

Non emision Laser OTHER

Non emision laser in Flexor digitorum brevis latent trigger point

Non-emision Laser

Eligibility Criteria

• Age: 18 Years - 39 Years
• Sex: all
• Healthy Volunteers: Yes
• Age Groups: Adult (18-64)

You may qualify if:

• 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.

You may not qualify if:

• 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.
