ALL>> Heel pain in the morning? Do you have plantar fasciitis? We are looking for volunteers for a graduate student research study titled “A New Biomechanical Theory Underlying Plantar Fasciitis” in order to find the cause for plantar fasciitis. Individuals diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in one foot are needed. Participants must be between the age of 18 and 65 years old and be free of low back, ankle and foot surgeries or trauma within the past two years. Participants must also be free of other medical conditions affecting balance, joints and ligaments. Only one session lasting between one to two hours is required. Participants will receive a small gift card. The research study will be located at Loma Linda University in Nichol Hall, Room A640. The principal investigator of the study is Everett B. Lohman III, DSc, PT, OCS. For more information, contact graduate student investigator, Michael at (909) 447-9796 or at mgranado@llu.edu.
