Synopsis
One hundred and two patients diagnosed with unilateral (right-sided) plantar fasciitis were randomized to receive extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) at different densities and number of sessions: Group A received 7 sessions of high-energy flux density (H-ESWT; 0.26 mJ/mm2); Group B received 3 sessions of H-ESWT (0.26 mJ/mm2); Group C received 7 sessions of low-energy flux density (<0.08 mJ/m...
