简要总结
Pes planus is a postural deformity seen with decreased medial longitudinal arch (MLA) height and this causes intense stress on the plantar fascia. Pes planus may affect individuals' activities of daily living, their productivity in occupational environments, and the risk of injury and performance in sports; It has also been reported that it may cause different musculoskeletal diseases such as plantar fasciitis, medial tibial stress syndrome, patellofemoral disorders and back pain in the future. Many clinical methods are used as a treatment for pes planus and most treatments involve supporting an overstretched plantar fascia and weakened MLA. The aim of the study is to investigate the immediate effects of kinesio taping and manual release on lower extremity performance in young adults with pes planus.
详细描述
This study is a randomized controlled trial, will be carried out on volunteer individuals with pes planus aged between 18-25, studying at Ankara Yıldırım Beyazıt University. Evaluation of parameters and inclusion criteria, kinesio taping and manual release applications will be made by the Physiotherapist. Individuals who meet the inclusion criteria, who volunteered to participate in the study and signed the consent sheet will be randomly divided into two groups, Group 1 [Manual Release (MR)] and Group 2 [Kinesio Taping (KT)]. A simple randomization method will be used with opaque sealed envelopes containing "1" or "2". Group allocation will be performed by an independent therapist, not involved in the study. All individuals will be evaluated with timed up-and-go test, heel rise test, 10-meter walking test, and functional reach test before and after the intervention. Manual release will be applied to group 1 after the evaluation and the evaluations will be repeated immediately the end of the application. Kinesio taping will be applied to group 2 after the evaluation and the evaluations will be repeated 45 minutes after the end of the application.

研究组 & 干预措施
Manual release group
Manual release will perform with plantar fascia and flexor hallucis longus stretching and tissue mobilization. Stretching/mobilization will applied for approximately 3 minutes.
干预措施: Manual Release (Other)
Kinesio taping group
Two techniques will be used in kinesio taping application; first technique is the gastrocnemius muscle inhibition technique and the plantar fascia ligament correction technique and other technique is the transverse arch ligament correction technique.
干预措施: Kinesio Taping (Other)
结局指标
主要结局
Timed up and go test (TUG)
时间窗: Change from baseline at immediately after one-session treatment
The timed up and go test is used to assess functional mobility. The test involves getting up from a standard chair without armrests, walking around a cone 3 m in front of the chair, and returning to the original sitting position as quickly as possible without running. The test is started with the researcher's verbal "go" instruction and the time to complete the test is recorded. After a familiarization attempt, three recorded exercises are performed with one-minute rest intervals. The fastest of three attempts is saved.
次要结局
- Heel rise test (HRT)(Change from baseline at immediately after one-session treatment)
- Functional reach test (FUT)(Change from baseline at immediately after one-session treatment)
- 10 meter walk test, walking speed(Change from baseline at immediately after one-session treatment)
- 10 meter walk test, cadence(Change from baseline at immediately after one-session treatment)
