- NCT07396753Recruiting
Nerve block to reduce opioid use after kidney donor surgery
This study tests a nerve block called Transversalis Fascia Plane Block to see if it lowers the amount of strong pain medicine (opioids) needed after a kidney donor surgery. It may help you have less pain and fewer side effects.

Pain Relief Methods for Hip Fracture Surgery
This trial compares two different nerve-blocking techniques to help manage pain after hip fracture surgery. Both methods numb the area around your hip to reduce pain and may help you recover better.

Pain relief after hip surgery: comparing two numbing methods
This trial compares two ways to numb the hip and thigh area after a specific type of hip surgery (cephalomedullary nailing). One method uses a continuous nerve block above the hip bone, and the other uses a continuous epidural. The goal is to find which offers better pain control.
Denpasar, BaliAges 18–65 - NCT06815393Recruiting
Comparing two pain relief methods for abdominal hysterectomy
This trial compares two different pain relief methods for women having abdominal hysterectomy (surgery to remove the uterus through a cut in the belly). It may help find a better way to manage pain after surgery.
Erzurum, YakutiyeAges 18–65 - NCT06536803Recruiting
Strength training with or without stretching for plantar fasciitis
This study tests whether adding specific stretches for the plantar fascia to high-load strength training helps male athletes with plantar fasciitis feel better. It compares strength training alone to strength training plus targeted stretching.
Mirpur MatheloAges 20–35 - NCT07544732Recruiting
Tape comparison for heel pain relief
This study tests two types of taping methods to reduce heel pain caused by plantar fasciitis. You'll wear special tape on your foot for a few weeks to see which method works better for your pain and movement.
Islamabad, Punjab ProvinceAges 19–44 - NCT07035015Recruiting
Virtual reality vs mannequin for learning a hip nerve block
This study compares learning a specific nerve block (for the hip/upper thigh) using a self-guided virtual reality headset versus a traditional mannequin. It is for doctors and trainees at The Ottawa Hospital who want to improve their ultrasound skills for this procedure.
Ottawa, OntarioAges Any age - NCT06697860Recruiting
Shockwave vs. massage for chronic heel pain
This study compares two treatments for chronic heel pain (plantar fasciitis): radial shockwave therapy and Graston technique (a special scraping massage). It aims to see which works better to reduce pain and improve function in adults aged 20–45 who have had symptoms for more than 3 months.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 5 months–10 months - NCT07316166RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve Block With or Without Extra Medicine for Hip Replacement
This trial compares two types of nerve blocks for pain relief after total hip replacement. One block uses a standard numbing medicine, and the other adds a medication (dexmedetomidine) that may extend the pain relief. The goal is to see which approach works better for managing pain after surgery.
Providence, Rhode IslandAges 18–80 - NCT06308965Recruiting
Does blood vessel-sparing hip replacement improve recovery?
This study compares two different surgical techniques for total hip replacement using an anterior approach. The goal is to see if saving the small blood vessels around the hip during surgery leads to a better recovery for patients.
Genk, LimburgAges 18 years+ - NCT07605650Recruiting
Fascia Release Technique for Forward Head Posture
This study tests whether adding a specialized soft-tissue technique (IASTM) to standard physical therapy helps improve forward head posture better than therapy alone. Forward head posture is when your head juts forward, which can cause neck pain and stiffness.
Giza, Giza GovernorateAges 18–30 - NCT07453498Recruiting
Nerve block for pain after hip replacement
This study tests if a specific nerve block (the psoas sheath block) helps reduce pain after hip replacement surgery. If you are having a hip replacement, you may be able to join and get this extra pain relief.
GalwayAges 18 years+ - NCT07241559Recruiting
Low back pain treatment study: injection and mobilization
This study tests two treatments for chronic low back pain: a special injection of dextrose (a sugar solution) guided by ultrasound, and a technique to mobilize the fascia (connective tissue) in the lower back. It aims to see if these help people who haven't found relief from standard treatments.
Ankara, AltındağAges 18–65 - NCT04729686RecruitingPhase 4
Nerve block during hip replacement for less postoperative pain
This trial tests whether a specific nerve block given during planned hip replacement surgery can reduce pain afterward. It may help you use less opioid pain medicine, but you must meet certain safety and medication criteria.
Baltimore, MarylandAges 18–80 - NCT05155501Recruiting
Surgery planning approaches for localized prostate cancer
This study compares different approaches used during prostate cancer surgery for men whose cancer is only in the prostate. It may help doctors choose the safest and most effective surgical plan for your situation.
Duarte, CaliforniaAges 40–80 - NCT06310096Recruiting
Stretching for chronic low back pain
This study tests whether a special stretching technique for the connective tissue in your lower back can help reduce pain and improve function in people with chronic low back pain (pain lasting 3 months or more). You would attend physiotherapy sessions and do regular stretches.
AnkaraAges 20–60 - NCT06452030Recruiting
Testing a new exercise for trunk muscles in low back pain
This study is testing a special training program for the muscles that support your spine. It is for people who have had frequent but mild episodes of low back pain that have recently calmed down. The goal is to see if changing how these muscles work can prevent future pain.
GhentAges 18–65 - NCT06568770RecruitingPhase 2/Phase 3
Comparing two nerve blocks for femur fracture surgery pain
This trial tests if one type of nerve block (PENG block) works better than another (S-FICB) for controlling pain during and after femur fracture surgery. Both blocks are guided by ultrasound to help with your recovery.
Sahiwal, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–70 - NCT06678776Recruiting
Study of breast fascia during mastectomy or reduction
This trial studies the natural structure of connective tissue (fascia) in the breast during surgery. It may help doctors better understand how to preserve important structures during mastectomy or breast reduction.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges Any age - NCT06736756Recruiting
Stretching hip muscle to help with knee pain
This trial tests if stretching the tensor fascia lata muscle (near your hip) changes how the muscle on the inside of your kneecap works. It is for people who have front knee pain without a specific injury, especially when doing things like running, squatting, or climbing stairs.
CairoAges 18–30 - NCT07107295Recruiting
Measuring back muscle thickness in chronic stroke patients
This trial uses ultrasound to measure the thickness of a specific back muscle in people who have had a stroke at least 6 months ago. It aims to understand changes in this muscle after stroke, which may help improve rehabilitation.
AnkaraAges 40–70 - NCT07241884Recruiting

Common questions
- Are there clinical trials for fascia?
- Yes. Clin2 currently lists 58 recruiting fascia studies from the U.S. registry, each rewritten for real people, not researchers, so you can see what it’s testing and who it’s for.
- How do I know if I qualify for a fascia trial?
- Each study lists its eligibility criteria — rules about age, diagnosis, and prior treatments. On every Clin2 trial page we explain these in words written for real people and offer a short, optional pre-screen for a fit read. The study team makes the final decision.
- Does it cost anything to join a fascia trial?
- Using Clin2 is always free. Many trials cover the cost of the study treatment and related visits; some reimburse travel. The study team explains exactly what’s covered before you decide.
