Patellar taping provides an effective treatment in alleviating the symptoms of a high proportion of subjects who suffer from PFPS, though the mechanisms of pain reduction have not completely been established following its application. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of taping on dynamic balance and reduction of pain in athletic women with patellofemoral pain syndrome. Methods: Fifteen female athletes with patellofemoral pain syndrome participated in the study. Therefore, dynamic balance was assessed using a SEBT(Star Excursion Balance Test) before and after application of patellar taping. The severity of pain was measured by VAS(Visual Analog Scale). Results: The results of variance analysis by VAS(p |
