Experimental: High intensity laser therapy combined with Gluteus Maximus strengthening exercise
patients will receive High intensity laser therapy combined with Gluteus Maximus strengthening exercise
Gluteus Maximus strengthening exercise
Maximus strengthening exercise for eight weeks using weight progression tools either elastic band or sand weight by assuming two modes of exercises (clamshell exercise, prone hip extension) with stretching exercise (hamstring, gastrocnemius, soleus, and plantar fascia) 2 sessions per week for 8 weeks
high-intensity laser therapy
A 3-phase treatment program will be performed in each session on the plantar fascia area. Treatment of trigger points in phase 1 and 2 by using power of 9 watts, E2C mode for 6 minute of 2 phases. The draining and vascularization-promoting application involve the whole foot sole, starting from the heel area in phase three by using power of 9 watts, CW mode with energy of 100J/cm2.
Active Comparator: High intensity laser therapy
patients will receive High intensity laser therapy.
