ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Plantar fascia is a ligament that supports the arch of the foot. Plantar fasciitis causes heel pain, particularly while taking the first steps in the morning or after rest. Overuse, weight gain, tight calf muscles, and poor footwear are all contributing factors. METHODOLOGY: Forty people who had plantar fasciitis were divided into two groups. Group A received LDT, followed by MFR, three times each week for four weeks. Group B received US, followed by MFR on the same timetable. Pain and function were assessed before and after therapy with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) and Foot Function Index (FFI). RESULT: Both groups reported considerable pain reduction (VAS) and better function (FFI) following treatment. Group A (LDT + MFR) experienced a higher reduction in pain and improved function compared to Group B (US + MFR)
