Protocol summary

Study aim
Comparison between Pneumatic Radial Shock Wave and Electromagnetic Radial Shock Wave on Pain and Disability Index in Patients with Plantar Fasciitis.
Design
A Quasi-experimental trials with 2 treatment groups with sample size including 36 patients and single blind. Patients through Random Table Number are divided by 2 groups. In the studied patients, special group sequentially enter in the dark envelopes. The envelopes is opened by researcher and patient is not aware of the treatment groups.

Single blinded
Blinding description
After referring to the clinic, a person receives a consent form containing all information related to the purpose and benefits of study and all exclusion and inclusion criteria, which gives patient the right to participate in the study and assures her of retaining all her personal information and give her the right to leave the study if she wishes.The cause of single blindness of the study is that the participants are unaware of the treatment groups but the researcher that is an evaluator, is aware of the treatment groups.
