Comparison between the effects of tibialis posterior versus fibularis longus Kinesio taping on foot posture, physical performance, and dynamic balance in young women with flexible flatfoot.

Kinesio taping of the tibialis posterior and fibularis longus can improve foot posture in young women with flexible flatfoot. Also, physical performance and dynamic balance improved by Kinesio taping of the tibialis posterior and the fibularis longus, respectively. In addition to the tibialis posterior, we found that the fibularis longus muscle can be considered a therapeutic target for managing flexible flatfoot in healthy young women.
