KinesioTaping on Knee Joint Position Sense
The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of kinesio tape (Neuromuscular bands) application on knee joint position sense. The investigators intend to evaluate, trough the use of an isokinetic dynamometer, the sensation of active and passive joint position sense of the knee joint, before, during and after the application of kinesio tape in different periods, and to verify if there is any noticeable change. The guiding question is presented as the following: "Does the application of kinesio tape influence the knee joint position sense in healthy young adults?". The hypothesis of this study is represented as follows: H1: Kinesio tape application improves knee joint position sensation in healthy young adults. H0: Kinesio tape application has no influence on knee joint sensation and position in healthy young adults.
