The Utilization of a Shoe Insert on Individuals With Unilateral Greater Trochanteric Pain Syndrome on Single Leg Stance, Biomechanics, and Pain Intensity
United States36 participantsStarted 2027-01-01
Plain-language summary
We hypothesize that the addition of a unilateral neutral shoe insert combined with standard physical therapy (PT+SI) will have greater improvements in pain and function at 12 weeks and 6 months compared to physical therapy with sham inserts (PT+Sham) and physical therapy (PT) alone. In addition, we hypothesize that the addition of a neutral shoe insert in the involved limb will immediately improve biomechanics and pain with the single-leg stance test.
