About this study
Official title: Comparison of the Effects of Kinesio Taping and Mulligan's Mobilization With Movement on Balance, Muscle Strength and Flexibility in Healthy Ankles
The aim of the study is to compare the effects of Kinesio taping and Mulligan's mobilization with movement technique on balance, muscle strength and flexibility in healthy ankles . Patients will randomly be divided into 4 groups: Kinesio taping (KT) group, sham Kinesio taping (SKT) group, Mulligan's mobilization with movement (MWM) group and sham mobilization with movement (SMWM) group . Kinesiotape will be applied both ankles as "Correction technique" in KT group, 'Posterolateral glide mobilization with movement' will be applied 10 times to both ankles in MWM group. The evaluations will be repeated after waiting 45 minutes to reveal the effects of Kinesio taping and Mulligan mobilization with movement.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A study testing Kinesio-tape and Mulligan's mobilization with movement in people with Healthy, run by Dokuz Eylul University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Are results available for this study?
The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
change in balance (time frame: Before intervention and 45 minutes after the intervention). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 15 Nov 2018.
