Official title: Stabilometry After Pressure Release of the Flexor Digitorum Brevis Muscle Versus a Non-emission Laser: Clinical Trial
Study type: INTERVENTIONAL
Overall status: COMPLETED
Phase: NA
Conditions: Flatfoot
Keywords: Foot
stabilometry
trigger point
Lead sponsor: Mayuben Private Clinic
Sponsor class: OTHER
First posted: 2023-05-24
Enrollment: 36
Sex: ALL
Minimum age (years): 18
Maximum age (years): 40
Standard ages: ADULT
Accepts healthy volunteers: no
Allocation: RANDOMIZED
Intervention model: PARALLEL
Primary purpose: TREATMENT

Brief summary: Thirty-six subjects randomly distributed between a pressure release intervention group and a control group whose intervention is a non-emission laser. All the subjects will be measured before and after the interventions of each group. The measurements will be made on a pressure platform to record the stabilometry variables.

Detailed description: Thirty-six subjects randomly distributed between a pressure release intervention group and a control group whose intervention is a non-emission laser. All the subjects will be measured before and after the interventions of each group. The measurements will be made on a pressure platform to record the stabilometry variables with eyes closed and open.

Eligibility criteria: Inclusion Criteria:

* Must have latent trigger point in Flexor Brevis Digitorum muscles with no other pathologies

Exclusion Criteria:

* Previous lower extremities surgery. History of lower extremities injury with residual symptoms (pain, "giving-away" sensations) within the last year.

Leg-length discrepancy more than 1 cm Balance deficits (determined by oral questionnaire regarding falls)
