Objective To systematically review the literature to determine whether external ankle
supports influence ankle biomechanics in participants with chronic ankle instability (CAI) …

When assessing biomechanics in a laboratory setting, task selection is critical to the
production of accurate and meaningful data. The injury biomechanics of landing is …

Background Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a common injury among athletes. Research
has reported reduced dorsiflexion range of motion, impairment of proprioception, and …

An athlete making an explosive movement puts extremely high loads through the contractile
and non-contractile musculo-tendinous elements attached to their skeletal structure. The …

Background: Chronic ankle instability (CAI) is a frequent complication of ankle sprain that
may be associated with long-term consequences. Although taping and bracing are common …

Background: Taping is a preventive measure commonly used for protecting and
strengthening the ankle joint to prevent further musculoskeletal damage. Ankle taping …

Purpose The current biomechanical research on the application of Kinesio taping (KT) to
patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) has focused on testing the expected movements …

Background The prevalent of ankle sprain is diagnosed different among both genders in
various activities. Taping is generally used as preventive means to protect the ankle joint …

The objective of this study was to determine the effect of Kinesio Taping (KT), alone or
together with balance exercises (BE), on parameters related to postural control, such as …

Background The application of ankle braces is an effective method for the prevention of
recurrent ankle sprains. It has been proposed that the reduction of injury rates is based on …
