The Effect of Plantar Fascia Release on Strain in the Spring and Long Plantar Ligaments
The effect of plantar fascia release on strain in the spring and long plantar ligaments was investigated in 11 cadaveric feet. Strain gauges were placed in the spring and long plantar ligaments of each specimen, and cyclic axial loading was applied until reproducible hysteresis curves were observed...

Zusammenfassung: | The effect of plantar fascia release on strain in the spring and long plantar ligaments was investigated in 11 cadaveric feet. Strain gauges were placed in the spring and long plantar ligaments of each specimen, and cyclic axial loading was applied until reproducible hysteresis curves were observed in the ligaments before and after plantar fascia release. After release of the plantar fascia, the average strain observed in the spring ligaments at 920N of axial load increased by 52% (p |
