Abstract

|
|
Background: This study was to investigate the immediate effects of kinesio taping (KT) of quadriceps on muscle strengthening and balance ability.
Design: Randomized controlled trial and conducted as a single-blind.
Methods: Twenty-four subjects participated in this study. They were randomly allocated two groups: kinesio taping group (KT group, n=12), placebo kinesio taping group (PKT group, n=12). The participants were tested with lower extremity muscle strengthening and balance ability pre-post intervention.
Results: After training, the change values of the lower extremity muscle strengthening and balance ability in the KT group were significantly greater than the PKT group (p<0.05).
Conclusion: The results indicated that kinesio taping were effective the promoting the lower extremity muscle strengthening and balance ability.
