Official title
A Randomized Controlled Trial of Custom Foot Orthoses for the Treatment of Plantar Heel Pain
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
This is a study investigating treatment of plantar fasciitis (heel pain). Physicians commonly prescribe specialized orthoses (shoe inserts) to treat heel pain. This study will evaluate the reduction in heel pain associated with three types of orthoses. It is hypothesized that custom made orthoses will significantly decrease pain and improve foot function in comparison to prefabricated insoles and sham insoles.
