Researchers conducted a survey in order to find out how taping influences on decrease in pain of an- kle joint and R.O.M(range of motion) of twelve male soccer players at H university from November 7th to 18th in 2005, and got the following result.
The average age of the subjects was 20.17±1.47. Among participants, one group of nine(75%) got tapping on their right ankle joints, and the other group of 3(25%) got tapping on their left ankle joints. For the 2 weeks experiment on the change of pain threshold.
Before applying taping, a rate of pain was 11.39±4.07 and after applying it, that of pain was 6.89±4.04. Therefore, taping was effective in decreasing in pain, and, statistically, the variance had some high value.
In terms of ROM, dorsiflexion and plantarflexion of ankle joints increased to 16.75±2.90 after using ROM, up from 1 5.76±3.07 before using it, and statistically, the variance had some high value(p < 0.05).
Moreover, two weeks later after starting the plantarflexion research, ROM before applying increased from 27.84±10.90 to 29.02±10.50 after applying it, and statistically, the variance had some high value(p < 0.05).
