“…Our finding that talus taping applied for 48 hours during normal functional activities achieves immediate increases in DF ROM is consistent with previous research (Kang et al, 2013;Yoon et al, 2014a;2014b) where the tape was applied for 5-10 minutes during controlled activity. Despite these differences in intervention prescription, mean increases in DF ROM were comparable.…”

“…As such, the mean 1.1 cm difference observed between baseline and 48-hour measures in the present study would equate to a 3.96° increase. This is comparable to results reported in previously published studies, where immediate increases in DF ROM ranged from 4.11° to 6.22° (Kang et al, 2013;Yoon et al, 2014a;2014b). Given this, we may infer that applying talus tape for 48 hours during normal functional activities does not yield greater immediate improvements in DF ROM than its application during 5-10 minutes of controlled activities.…”

“…It is possible that the observed treatment effects would be different in participants presenting with equinus. However, 1 comparable immediate increases in DF ROM were reported by prior studies (Kang et al, 2013;Yoon et al, 2014a;2014b) that had recruited volunteers with DF ROM <10°. Given that the immediate effects of the taping intervention appear to be comparable between symptomatic and asymptomatic volunteers, it seems plausible that any longer-term effects might also be comparable.…”

“…Four published studies have reported significant increases in DF ROM following a talus taping intervention (Kang et al, 2013;Yoon et al, 2014a;2014b); however, none have investigated the time-course effects of the intervention. As such, it is currently unknown whether the observed increases in ROM are transient or longer lasting.…”

Background: Talus taping may be an effective physiotherapeutic treatment for equinus (passive dorsiflexion range of motion <10°). However, the time-course effects of this intervention are unknown.Methods: Sixteen healthy participants (mean age 28.3±8 years) were recruited. Participants' ankles were randomly assigned to control and intervention conditions. Baseline measures of dorsiflexion range of motion were taken in both ankles using the weight-bearing lunge test. The intervention ankle had talus tape applied, which remained in place for 48 hours during normal functional activities. To determine the time-course effects, dorsiflexion range of motion was reassessed in the control and intervention ankles immediately following removal of the tape (at 48 hours) and again 5 days later, on day 7.Findings: Dorsiflexion range of motion in the taped intervention ankle increased significantly between the baseline and 48-hour measures. However, when reassessed at day 7, participants' 1 dorsiflexion ranges of motion had returned to baseline levels. There were no significant differences in the control ankle across all three measures. Conclusions:Applying talus tape for 48 hours during normal functional activities results in immediate but not long-lasting changes in dorsiflexion range of motion.

“…Recent studies have reported that talus stabilization taping (TST) can help restore normal accessory motion in cases of people with limited ankle dorsiflexion ROM (Kang et al, 2014;Yoon et al, 2014). TST provides the posterior talar glide and allows active ankle dorsiflexion movement in a weight-bearing position during walking (Mau and Baker, 2014;Yoon et al, 2014).…”

Talus stabilization taping (TST) can be utilized to stabilize posteriorly glide of the talus and allows active ankle dorsiflexion movement during walking. The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of ankle kinesio taping with those of TST on ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion, static balance, the Timed Up and Go test, and the fall risk in patients with chronic stroke and limited ankle dorsiflexion. Participants were randomized into the kinesio taping (n= 11) and TST groups (n= 11). Both groups were applied the appropriate taping and were asked to walk on the treadmill for 10 min. The ankle dorsiflexion passive range of motion, static balance ability, Timed Up and Go test, and fall risk were assessed in all participants before and after the intervention. The TST group showed greater improvement than the ankle kinesio taping group in all outcomes measured (P< 0.05). Furthermore, both groups had significantly decreased in the Timed Up and Go results (P< 0.05). This study shows that TST improves functional ability of the ankles of patients with chronic stroke in comparison to the kinesio taping method.
