Assessment of the Short Effects of Taping on the Foot, Knee, and Hip Regions on Balance Skills in Children With Mildly Affected Cerebral Palsy
Our study aims to determine which of ankle correction, quadriceps facilitation, and gluteus maximus facilitation taping provides a better immediate effect on balance skills in children with mildly affected cerebral palsy. Children whose parents have given consent for the study will undergo three different taping applications with a one-week interval. After each taping application, a 15-minute waiting period will be observed, followed by balance assessment using the Wii Balance System with eyes open and closed.
