Summary

This study looked at 32 children with clubfoot who were already treated with the Ponseti method. Researchers wanted to see if adding myofascial release and static stretching to nighttime bracing could prevent the foot from relapsing. The children received therapy sessions and were followed to check foot movement, relapse, and quality of life. The goal was to find a better way to keep the correction long-term.
