Objectives : The aim of the study was to ascertain the effectiveness of magnetic acupuncture in patients with plantar fasciitis. Methods : The patients were treated with magnetic acupuncture using a magnetic therapy stimulator (Whata 153), as well as with moxibustion therapy. Acupuncture treatment was conducted on the acupoints of Ashi—as well as on 太谿 (KI3), 崑崙 (BL60), and 委中 (BL40)—for 15 minutes. The intensity of pain was evaluated using the visual analogue scale (VAS), and the tenderness threshold (TT) was measured at each visit using an algometer. Results : After treatment, evaluation using the VAS had improved, as had the TT; furthermore, plantar fasciitis pain was reduced. Conclusion : Magnetic acupuncture relieved pain in plantar fasciitis. In further clinical study, more research on magnetic acupuncture is required.
