Brief summary
This study will investigate the effects of Floss band application and Mulligan mobilization on ankle range of motion, vertical jump, gait and balance in active healthy young adults.
Detailed description
The effects of floss band application and mulligan mobilization on ankle range of motion, vertical jump, gait, and balance in active healthy young adults are unclear or limited due to a lack of studies. There are also no other studies comparing the two interventions in healthy young adults. Therefore, this study will investigate the effects of Floss band application and Mulligan mobilization on ankle range of motion, vertical jump, gait, and balance in active healthy young adults.
Interventions
OTHERFloss Band
A floss band will be applied to the ankle joint and the participant will practice various weight-bearing active ankle motions simultaneously.
OTHERMulligan Mobilization
Mulligan mobilization will be applied to the ankle joint and the participant will practice various weight-bearing active ankle motions simultaneously.
OTHERControl
