    Abstract
    Proprioception is an important factor in rehabilitation and prevention of injuries. Kinesio tape has gained recent popularity for its proposed favorable influence on range of motion, injury prevention, and proprioception. Currently, there is limited scientific data to determine if Kinesio tape improves proprioception. The aim of this study was to determine the effects Kinesio tape has on the proprioception of the lower body, and evaluate any possible differences between ankle and knee taping on proprioception in healthy young adults.
