Brief Summary
Modification(s)  

The study anticipates the Plantar fasciitis patients with gastrocnemius tightness. Patients will be recruited on the basis of the aforementioned criteria. All subject will be informed about the study procedure and treatment protocol and written informed consent will be procured. The therapist will provide patients and their caregivers with an information sheet that explains the study protocol as well as the risks and benefits. The patient will be recruited in a single group. Outcome measures like the VAS and Ultrasonography with B-mode linear probe high frequency 7-12MHz will be used to assess the subject pre- intervention and post- intervention. Plantar fasciitis patient with gastrocnemius tightness will receive one session of dynamic cupping therapy with pressure +1mmhg for 10 mins. The period of time between pre-intervention assessment and post intervention assessment will be 3 days.
