The Immediate Effects of Rigid Taping on Physical Performance in Women with Hallux Valgus Deformity

Purpose: The aim of the study was to investigate the immediate effects of taping on physical performance in women with flexible hallux valgus. Material and Methods: Forty voluntary women with hallux valgus included in the study. Individuals carried out the timed-performance activities barefoot. The 10-meter walk test was used to reflect walking speed and 10 stairs ascent time was recorded. Each measurement was repeated three times and the average of three measurements were recorded. Individuals performed the timed-performance tests before and after taping and the differences between the measurements were compared. Participants were divided into groups according to the variables age and Body Mass Index, and timed-performance test results were also analyzed in this way. Results: Walking speed of all individuals increased (p0.05), but a significant difference was found in terms of stair ascent time (p0.05), however stair ascent time was different between groups (p
