Details and patient eligibility

About

34 volunteer professional volleyball players with (n=12) and without (n=22) CAI will include in the study. Mulligan ankle taping will apply. Measurements will take before and after the intervention. Muscle tone, stiffness, and elasticity will measure with MyotonPRO hand-held device. The static balance will measure with single leg stance test(SLST) while the eyes-closed, dynamic balance will measure with the Y balance test(YBT). Single leg hopping test(SLHT) will evaluate performance and an active position sense test will use for JPS. During the static and dynamic balance and performance tests, the ankle's confidence will be evaluated with the Visual Analog Scale (VAS). The study aimed to determine the effect of Mulligan fibular taping over the Tibialis Anterior(TA), Peroneus Longus(PL), Gastrocnemius Lateralis(GCL), and Medialis(GCM) muscles on muscle tone, stiffness, elasticity, as well as the performance, joint position sense(JPS), static and dynamic balance in female volleyball players with and without chronic ankle instability(CAI).

Volleyball players with Chronic Ankle Instability
Experimental group
Description:
Before the taping application, the application area of all athletes will be shaved. It will be cleaned with an alcohol wipe before the application so that situations such as sweat or moisture do not reduce the effect of the banding. For taping, while the athlete lies in a supine position on a portable stretcher, the leg weight will be taken by placing the athlete's foot on the abdomen with slight knee and hip flexion. The rigid tape will be measured and cut obliquely starting approximately 2 cm anterior to the fibula and approximately 1 cm anterior to the lateral malleolus and ending in the middle of the anterior tibia region. To increase the strength of the banding, another band will be added to it. In the application, only banding will be preferred and mobilization will not be done.
