Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of the research is to evaluate the effects of tool-assisted soft tissue mobilization and kinesiology tape applications applied to the Hamstring muscle on balance, agility and jumping in athletics athletes.


Description:

Participants will be divided into 3 groups. Kinesiology taping will be applied to the 1st group, and instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization will be applied to the 2nd group. The 3rd group will be the control group and no application will be made. All 3 groups will participate in regular training. Before training, applications will be made to the Hamstring muscle on both legs. All 3 groups will be evaluated before, after and 1 month after training, and the 1st and 2nd groups will be evaluated by comparing them with the 3rd group (control group). A 15-minute warm-up period will be given before the measurements. During the post-application measurements, the 1st group will have Kinesiological Taping. There will be 3-minute rest periods between measurements to prevent fatigue. Kinesiology taping; In order to facilitate the muscle, while the subject is standing and his body is flexed to ensure hip flexion, both "I" bands will be applied from the origin to the insertion, with 30% stretching from the medial and lateral, starting from the Ischial Tuberositas to the border of the Popliteal Fossa. Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization; The subject is in a prone position on a bed, with the lower extremity in a neutral position, and a hazelnut-sized amount of lubricant will be applied to the working surface, and will be applied to the skin on the back of the upper leg for 5 minutes, targeting the tissue structures. (Hamstring and deep fascia covering this muscle) The pressure and speed will be adjusted according to the tolerance of the subject so as not to cause pain. Participants will be administered the Unipedal Stance Test, Agility T-Test and Standing Long Jump Test.

Outcome

Type Measure Description Time frame Safety issue
Primary Unipedal Stance Test It is a static balance test. For the test, participants are asked to stand on their chosen foot; the other foot is lifted (it should be close to but not touching the ankle on the floor), while the arms are positioned diagonally across the chest. You are told to focus on a point at eye level during the test. When the participant lifts his feet off the ground, time calculation begins using a stopwatch. The time calculation ends when the participant does one of the following: Uses arms (i.e. does not cross arms), uses lifted foot, moves weight-bearing foot to maintain balance. The process is repeated 3 times and the best of 3 attempts is recorded. A 5-minute rest is allowed between each set of trials to prevent fatigue.There is no maximum minimum wage. 6 weeks
Primary Agility T Test The T test consists of 4 contact points formed in a T shape in an area of 10m length and 10m width. The aim is to complete a series that requires the subject to move in different directions and in different ways between these contact points in the shortest time possible. The difference between this test and other agility tests is that the subject always looks in the same direction. It changes direction by sliding steps to the right and left or by running backwards. This test requires two 900° and 1800° turns, as well as 10m forward, 10m right, 10m left and 10m back, for a total distance of 40m. The subjects' toes are placed just behind the line, their feet are at normal range, they are parallel to the ground, their arms are in front, their knees are bent, they jump as far as they can with the arms swinging, and both feet touch the ground at the same time. The test is repeated twice and the athletes' best distance is recorded in meters.There is no maximum minimum wage. 6 weeks
