The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of Low-Dye and Kinesio Taping on pain and function in individuals with plantar fasciitis.
Subject: In this study, the effects of Low-Dye Taping and Kinesio Taping (KT) on pain and function will be investigated in individuals with plantar fasciitis. There are studies on both Low-Dye banding and KT in the literature and they are popular applications recently. However, to the best of our knowledge, when we look at the Turkish and English literature, no study has been found comparing these two therapeutic massages in terms of pain, functionality and performance.
Purpose: Plantar fasciitis (PF) is a clinical picture characterized by degeneration of the plantar fascia resulting from repetitive microtrauma to the plantar fascia causing an inflammatory reaction. It is one of the most common causes of heel pain in adults. The plantar fascia has a fundamental role in the biomechanics of the foot, supporting the medial longitudinal arch (MLA), distributing forces and stresses of the foot during gait or other loading conditions. Disorders in the musculoskeletal and somatosensory system in patients with plantar fasciitis may cause pain and decrease in functional capacity. Therefore, its purpose is; This study was planned to show the effectiveness of taping methods applied in addition to ESWT in individuals presenting with heel pain. Thanks to the findings to be obtained from our study, it is aimed to contribute to the literature with objective, evidence-based results in this field.
