Effect of Different Kensio Taping Methods on Mechanical Parameters of Lower Extremity Joints During Landing in Women

摘要


Because women have special innate physiology and skeleton structure with insufficient muscle strength in general, kensio taping (KT) is a fast and convenient prevention way to prevent injuries during sport compared to sport training. This study investigated effect of different KT modes toward young women landing and investigated the effect of different KT modes toward lower limb mechanic parameters. Fifteen adult women volunteers were recruited. Muscle directional taping (MDT) and corrective taping (CT) were used respectively. Jump-landing test was carried out before and after taping. Three-dimensional motion capture system and force plate were used to measure hip's, knee's and ankle's joint angle and moment at initial contact (IC) and at knee joint's maximum bending angle (MAX). After taping, there were significant differences in lower limb kinematics and kinetics between two taping modes. Knee's and ankle's joint angles reached significant differences at IC respectively (knee: F = 16.971, P = 0.001; ankle: F = 20.817, P < 0.000); and each joint reached significant differences at MAX respectively (knee: F = 10.123, P < 0.000; ankle: F = 7.640, P = 0.002). The measurement results of joint moment indicated that knee joint and ankle joint reached significant differences at IC respectively (knee: F = 4.510, P = 0.020; ankle: F = 15.950, P < 0.000); and each joint reached significant differences at MAX respectively (hip: F = 6.094, P = 0.029; knee: F = 18.595, P < 0.000; ankle: F = 5.579, P = 0.009). This study indicates that fast and convenient KT modes can improve body skeleton arrangement, facilitate muscle contraction and relaxation to reduce or prevent pain and injuries for women during high-intensity exercise.
