The Effect of the Mulligan Knee Taping Technique on Patellofemoral Pain and Lower Limb Biomechanics
Conclusion:
The Mulligan knee taping technique successfully reduced knee pain in participants with PFP. This is the first study to establish a link between Mulligan knee taping and the reduction of PFP in conjunction with decreased hip internal rotation and earlier activation of gluteus medius.
Clinical Relevance:
The Mulligan knee taping technique may benefit the clinical environment by providing an alternative evidence-based treatment plan for PFP.
