Objectives: To compare the effectiveness of dry needling and extracorporeal shockwave therapy in chronic plantar fasciitis.
Study design: Randomized single-blind control trial
Setting: Rehabilitation clinic, Songklanagarind Hospital.
Subjects: Thirty adult patients with chronic plantar fasciitis
Methods: Participants were randomized into 2 groups by block of four. Sixteen patients in group A received treatment with dry needling once a week and 14 patients in group B received treatment with extracorporeal shockwave once a week for 4 weeks. Both groups were educated with plantar-fascia specific stretching exercise. The severity of initial first-step pain assessed by VAS and the Foot Health Status Questionnaire were evaluated at the 0, 1st, 2nd, 4th, 8th and 12th week after the 1st treatment. Compliance of stretching exercise and the numbers of paracetamol taking were recorded by patients after treatment and foot function) scores were increased significantly in both groups after treatment. There were no statistically significant differences in VAS score, the FHSQ score and the number of medication taking as compared between groups.
Conclusion: Both dry needling and extracorporeal shockwave therapy showed improvement in the treatment of chronic plantar fasciitis by reducing pain and increase foot function with no statistically significant differences as compared between groups.
