Abstract Plantar fasciitis is a common musculoskeletal problem and is a frequent source of heel discomfort. Plantar fasciitis is a widespread ailment, but its exact mechanism and aetiology are yet unknown. Most people agree that it is related to recurrent micro-trauma. However, because of the hormonal changes that follow menopause, it is more common in postmenopausal women. Because estrogen maintains the suppleness and length of the plantar fascia, the decrease in oestrogen levels is important. The inferior heel area, especially in the vicinity of the medial plantar process, as well as the medial, lateral, and lower posterior parts of the calcaneus are frequently affected by heel pain. Weight-bearing activities are usually when the patient experiences the most severe pain, and the majority of the time, a shift in the quantity or intensity of physical activity occurs before the patient experiences symptoms. This study aims to show the effectiveness of three treatment protocols for plantar fasciitis: foot and ankle manipulation combined with cross-friction massage and gastrocsoleus complex stretching.
