Myotonometric measurement

MyotonPRO is a non-invasive myotonometer used to evaluate the viscoelastic properties of soft tissues. Data collection will be carried out by three researchers experienced in the use of myotonometer. Before the evaluations, participant and repeated measurement information for both researchers will be recorded on the device. All assessments will be made bilaterally. The first researcher will perform two measurements 30 minutes apart from the measurement point standardized with MyotonPRO to evaluate the plantar mechanical properties. Then, the second researcher will take two measurements with MyotonPRO from the same point with 30 minutes intervals. One day later, the first researcher will measure again from the same reference point once.
