N/A NCT07544901 Kind: NA Apr 22, 2026
Abstract
The study will be randomised clinical trial. This study will be conducted at the University of Lahore Teaching Hospital, Lahore, Pakistan. A sample size of 48 will be randomly allocated into two experimental groups, (24 participants in each group), by using sealed envelope method. All the screened and willing participants were randomly allocated into two groups. Group A will be given navicular mobilization and group B will be given conventional therapy with navicular mobilization. Treatment will be given for 4 weeks 4 sessions/ week with total of 16 sessions. Assessment to be taken at baseline, 2nd week and 4th week. The participants randomly allocated in Group A will receive navicular mobilization. In navicular mobilization, Subject- prone lying, Therapist- standing on tested side. In the prone position, when the foot is stabilized by a towel underneath, navicular mobilization is administered. The therapist's fixing hand wraps the calcaneus, grasps the talus bone, and fixes it. By placing the thumb on the plantar surface of the foot and pushing with the thumb of the other hand in a dorsal direction, navicular mobilization is provided. This dorsal glide will be given with 2 sets of 5 minutes. Each session will be of 30 minutes. Four sessions will be given per week for 4 weeks. The participants randomly allocated in Group B will receive conventional physical therapy with navicular mobilization. In navicular mobilization, Subject- prone lying, Therapist- standing on tested s...
