Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective is to determine the effectiveness of myofascial Induction effects on plantar pressures variables. Forty healthy subjects will be recruited for a simple blind clinical trial. All subjects will be randomly distributed in two different groups: control group (sham Laser) and experimental group (myofascial Induction). Outcome measurements will be foot plantar pressure area (footprint) by a validated platform. Two trials will be recorded before and after intervention in standing position.
