简要总结
This study is a randomized controlled trial designed to compare the effects of myofascial release and stretching of the plantar fascia on balance and spatial parameters of gait in ambulatory individuals with muscular dystrophy. A total of 38 participants will be recruited and randomly allocated into two groups. One group will receive stretching of the plantar fascia and the other group will receive myofascial release of the plantar fascia. Both interventions will be administered for a duration of four weeks. Balance will be assessed using the Berg Balance Scale and spatial parameters of gait such as stride length and normalized stride length will be evaluated at baseline and at the end of the intervention period. The results of the study will help in determining the more effective intervention for improving balance and gait parameters in ambulatory muscular dystrophy individuals.
