The number of recurrent ankle sprains will be determined at 4, 8, 12, and 26 weeks after the completion of the intervention. This study will provide data regarding the efficacy of KT for the treatment of acute lateral ankle sprain. The results may lead to insights into the usefulness of ...
Aim of this study was to assess does kinesiotape have effect on medial-lateral pos-tural sway in one leg stance. Subjects of this study were 6 students of Satakunta Uni-versity of Applied Sciences, 5 females and 1 male. The exclusion criteria were: Acute ankle sprain, skin irritation, dis...
The same tape measurement procedure has been reported previously and has high levels of reliability with repeated mea- sures (flexion: r = 98, extension: r = .96, lateral flexion: r = .98, *r=reliability; Frost et al. 1982). Subjects performed a static stretch for 15 seconds in the ...
[Subjects] Eight horse racing jockeys were selected for this study. [Methods] Measurement of isokinetic muscular function of both flexor and extensor muscles was performed at the angular velocities of 60°/sec and 180°/sec using a Biodex system 3, before and after application of Kinesio taping...

Lateral ankle sprains are one of the most common injuries during sports and physical activities. After sprain, many develop a condition known as chronic ankle instability (CAI). Kinesio Tape (KT) have been used at the ankle joint for decrease deficits in people with CAI. The prolonged use of...
Interventions: Subjects in the FAI group received lateral ankle sprain KT application, whereas those in the control group received no tape application. Main Outcome Measures: Proprioception was measured using eversion force sense. This task was performed at 30% of the eversion maximum voluntary ...
The results demonstrate that Kinesiotaping restricted frontal plane ankle complex motion that is associated with lateral ankle sprain. Objective information on the amount and nature of ankle taping support may assist sports medicine practitioners when recommending ankle support to athletes.Aline E. Botsis...
Subjects were taped for prevention of a lateral ankle sprain with three strips of Kinesio tape applied with the foot held in full dorsiflexion. Sagittal and frontal plane motion and load-displacement of the ankle complex for each support condition were obtained using an ankle arthrometer. Main ...
