Filter by:The aim of this randomised placebo-controlled study was to investigate the acute effect of kinesiology taping in the gastro-soleus muscle group of handball players. Researchers compared the placebo and the kinesiology taping groups to see if there were any effects on foot plantar and dorsiflexion muscle strength, balance, proprioception, horizontal jumping and injury proneness.
To analyze the short-term effect of kinesiology taping on sitting postural control in moderate and severe cerebral palsy
With the initiation of prosthesis use following lower extremity amputations, the body shows biomechanical changes according to the amputation level, and as a result, it develops adaptation mechanisms on both the healthy and ampute sides. It has been reported that the most common secondary pathology caused by these mechanisms developed to compensate the amputated side is lower back pain and adaptation mechanisms vary according to the presence of pain. Adaptation strategies in transfemoral amputees cause permanent changes in the connective tissue structure properties of the toracolumbar region and reduce the contribution of these structures to dynamic stability. It has been reported that with the fascia correction technique, one of the kinesiological taping techniques, the connective tissue fiber alignment can be rearranged and the degree of stiffness can be reduced. Before the intervention, biomechanical properties of the toracolumbar region structures with MyotonPro and postural stability measurements with TekScan will be taken.
Kinesio tape (KT) has been widely used in the areas of sports and physical therapy (Kase, 2003). The effect of KT tensions on H-reflex modulation has not been discussed in the literature. This study investigated the effect of different KT tensions on the H-reflex modulation in the gastrocnemius and the soleus muscles.
