Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study; The aim of this study is to examine the effects of kinesio taping technique and percussive massage technique applied to plantar flexor muscles on proprioception, balance and flexibility in healthy individuals.


Clinical Trial Description

The sample of the study will consist of healthy individuals who have not had any discomfort or surgical operation related to the lower extremity in the last 6 months. The demographic information of the individuals who agreed to participate in the study will be recorded and their written consent will be obtained. Participants will be divided into 2 groups as kinesio taping and Percussive Massage groups by randomization method. The dominant lower extremities of both groups will be applied. The Percussive Massage group will be applied to the posterior part of the sural fascia for 5 minutes, 3 times a week, including the plantar flexor muscles. In the kinesio taping group, taping will be done in accordance with the fascia correction technique, including the plantar flexor muscles, and it will be requested to stay for 3 days. Both groups will be evaluated before and after the application. Joint position sense test will be used to evaluate proprioception. In the evaluation of balance, the one-leg standing test will be considered. In the evaluation of flexibility; The flexibility of the hamstring, gastrocnemius, and plantar fascia will be examined. The Straight Leg Lift Test will be performed to look at the flexibility of the hamstring muscle. Pre- and post-intervention data were statistically analyzed and compared. ;
