Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
static stretching group
The stretch will be done by placing both feet on a raised platform, lowering the heel off the platform without touching the ground, and held in this position to perform a static stretch. They will perform 5 repetitions, 15 seconds of rest and 1 minute of stretching.

self massage group
In addition to the self-stretching application, plantar self-massage will be applied. Plantar self massage will be shown to the participants by the physiotherapist with a 7 cm spiky massage ball. Then, participants will be asked to self-massage the plantar sole of the foot for 5 minutes with a 7 cm spiky massage ball.

Manual Stimulation Group
In addition to the self-stretching application, manual stimulation will be applied.
Manual protocol:
A) Pressure will be applied in each interdigital space and on the longitudinal arch with shear in the longitudinal direction (5 repetitions of 10 seconds each).
B) Pressure with transverse shear on the metatarsal heads (5 repetitions of 5 seconds each) C) Static pressure will be applied to the first and fifth metatarsal head, center of the midfoot, and heel (5 repetitions per 10-second period each).
