Abstract

Background: Medial tibial stress syndrome (MTSS) is one of the most common sources of exercise-induced leg pain, particularly in athletes involved in high impact sports, such as netball. The high incidence and substantial recovery time highlight the need for evidence-based management strategies for MTSS. Although anti-pronation taping is used clinically to manage MTSS, by controlling navicular motion and pronation (risk factors for MTSS) no published research has systematically evaluated its efficacy in MTSS symptomatic athletes. This study aimed to evaluate the short-term effects of anti-pronation taping on foot mobility and pain in netball athletes with MTSS.
