Table 2. The pre- and post-rehabilitation outcome measures.

NPRS: numerical pain rating scale; FFI: foot functional index; ROM: range of motion; MMT: manual muscle testing

Numerical pain rating scale interpretation: (0) - no pain, (1-3) - mild pain, (4-5) - moderate pain, (6-7) - severe pain, (8-9) - very severe pain, (10) - worst pain

Manual muscle testing interpretation: 0 - no muscle contraction, 1 - flickering muscle contraction, 2 - full range of motion with gravity eliminated plane, 3 - full range of motion against gravity plane, 4 - full range of motion against gravity plane with minimal resistance, 5 - full range of motion against gravity plane with minimal resistance
