Sponsor's own description

A reduction of intrinsic foot muscle sizes has been identified in patients with chronic plantar fasciitis. Weaker intrinsic foot muscles has been suggested to decrease the medial longitudinal arch height and subsequently increase extra tensile stress in the plantar fascia, resulting in the chronicity of the condition. Therefore, it is speculated that atrophic intrinsic foot muscles may be a significant risk factor of developing chronic plantar fasciitis. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of an 8-week targeted intrinsic foot muscles exercise regimen on the intrinsic foot muscle size, symptomatic relief, and foot function improvement in long-distance runners with chronic plantar fasciitis.
