Summary

This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the acute effects of fibular repositioning taping on balance, jumping, and sprint performance in healthy young women. Eligible participants are randomly allocated to one of three groups: fibular repositioning taping, sham taping, or control. Physical performance and dynamic balance are assessed at baseline and after the intervention using functional outcome measures, including jumping tests, a 10-meter sprint test, and the Y Balance Test. The study is designed to determine whether fibular repositioning taping produces short-term changes in selected performance parameters compared with sham taping and no intervention.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Fibular Repositioning Taping

Fibular repositioning taping is applied to the dominant ankle using a rigid taping technique intended to support fibular positioning. Outcome measurements are repeated 30 minutes after the application.

PROCEDURE

Sham Taping

Sham taping is applied to the dominant ankle with a similar appearance to the active taping application but without therapeutic fibular repositioning or manual correction
