A Comparative Study of Kinesiology Taping Versus Taping in the Treatment of Plantar Fasciitis

Plantar fasciitis is a very studied pathology and treated with taping. There are studies that assess the effectiveness of Kinesio taping, as well as taping or low-dye taping, few studies that compare the two treatments and assess which is more effective.

In the present work the effectiveness of Kinesio taping and taping will be assessed, as well as whether possible differences among intervention effects exist in terms of pain improvement, comfort and durability of the bandage.
