Interventions
sham taping will be applied three times, once every five days. the sham group will have the tape simply applied to the skin without any tension (perpendicular to the quadriceps muscle, tension-free). Kinesiotapes do not contain any medication; their effect depends on the technique (facilitation, inhibition, etc.) and tension level (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%).
rengthening exercises for the quadriceps and hamstring muscles, stretching exercises around the knee, proprioceptive exercises, and activity modification.
Kinesiotaping will be applied three times, once every five days. Kinesiotaping will be applied to the group with a specific tension and technique (quadriceps facilitation technique, "Y" tape shape, applied with 25-50% tension). Kinesiotapes do not contain any medication; their effect depends on the technique (facilitation, inhibition, etc.) and tension level (10%, 25%, 50%, 75%).
