Study Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if instrumented-assisted soft tissue mobilization (i.e., massage using specialized metal instruments) of the lower leg and Achilles tendon region changes the properties of the tendon and the range of ankle dorsiflexion (i.e., the ability to bring the foot and toes back towards the head). One lower leg and Achilles tendon in each participant will be treated with instrumented-assisted soft tissue mobilization for 7 minutes during 8 treatment sessions over a 4-week period. The other lower leg and Achilles tendon will not be treated and be assessed as the non-treated control leg.

Primary Outcome

Participants will push their foot against a force measuring platform. At the same time, an ultrasound will be used to image their Achilles tendon. How much force they generated will be divided by how far the tendon stretches to indicate stiffness in newtons per millimeter (N/mm)

Interventions

  • OTHER Instrumented-assisted soft tissue mobilization
