Summary

The aim of this research is to find the immediate effects of propriocepticve neuromuscular facilitation with lower leg kinesiotaping on ankle dorsiflexion, gait and functional mobility in patients with chronic stroke. It will be a randomized clinical trial in which participants will be selected through non probability convenience sampling. Patients aged range from 40 to 70 years, both gender, diagnosed with hemiplegia due to hemorrhagic or ischemic stroke for more than 6 months, with insufficient ankle dorsi flexion less than 8 degree will be included in this study whereas patients with neurological problems other than stroke that would interfere with gait and balance control and with limbs affected bilaterally will be excluded from study. Participant will be randomly allocated into three groups (A,B and C). Group A will receive only ankle kinesiotaping that will be applied for 30 minutes for one session. Group B will receive proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation hold-relax technique in flexion-adduction-external rotation pattern, 15-20 repetitions that will be applied in lying position for 10-15 minutes for one session.

Group C will receive both proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation hold-relax technique with ankle kinesiotaping. Posttest measurement will be taken after 30 minutes of one session of treatment using Time up and GO (TUG) test, dynamic gait index, barthel index and Motor Assessment Scale . Data will be analyzed by SPSS version 21
