Study Notes
Common Injury Conditions and Treatment with Positional Release Therapy
Metatarsalgia:
- Forefoot pain often caused by overload of plantar foot structures.
- Clinician must determine causative factors to sustain releases.
- Common signs and symptoms include pain and decreased ability to bear weight.
- Common differential diagnoses include Morton's neuroma and metatarsal stress fracture.
- Clinician therapeutic interventions include determining root cause, radiograph or MRI, and treatment sequencing.
- Patient self-treatment interventions include self-release, PNF stretching, and self-massage.
Plantar Fasciitis:
- Arch irritation can activate myotatic reflex and reinitiate inflammatory process.
- Clinician must limit reengagement of myotatic reflex to prevent chronic cycle of inflammation.
- Common signs and symptoms include pain in medial heel or arch.
- Common differential diagnoses include heel spur and calcaneal fracture.
- Clinician therapeutic interventions include determining root cause, radiograph, and treatment sequencing.
- Patient self-treatment interventions include self-release, supportive sandal or shoe, and self-massage.
