Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Design: The researchers will conduct a quasi-experimental study with a method of convenience sampling. The design of this study will allow to determine what the direct effect of a common a commonly used physical therapy ankle manipulation is on the length of the soft tissue connection between the smaller bone in the lower leg and the heel bone and the smaller bone in the leg and the ankle bone.
