This set is called postural control system. Postural control involves the control of body position in space for the dual purposes of postural stability and postural orientation. Balance process is divided into four-stage by Sullivan and Markos: mobility, stability, controlled mobility, and skill. Several types of exercise have been proposed to improve proprioception. Bout and Gahery stated that balance exercises improve neuromuscular relations and reduces the proprioception errors. They believe that those who have more proprioception difficulty may benefit more from exercise therapy.Taping is another technique to enhance proprioception. Improvement in proprioception leads to better function and reduction of disability. Kinesiotaping is being used to prevent injuries and to help curing the injury. It can also improve efficiency in sport, improve lymph and venous circulation, decrease edema, stimulate the mechanoreceptors and increase awareness of subject about the ankle position, reduces the pain and improves muscle performance'}, 'eligibilityModule': {'sex': 'FEMALE', 'stdAges': ['ADULT'], 'maximumAge': '22 Years', 'minimumAge': '19 Years', 'healthyVolunteers': True, 'eligibilityCriteria': 'Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* having no pain in ankle joint, not having sport activity in the period of this study, healthy sensory motor function in lower limb, no history of neuromuscular disease, vertigo or any uncorrected visual problems, any kind of ankle injury or lower limb surgery, taking sedative medication, cardiovascular, neurologic, and pulmonary disease, balance problems, rheumatoid disease, psychological disease, body mass index between 17 to25.\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* ankle pain, allergy to tape, and not completing all interventional sessions.'}, 'identificationModule': {'nctId': 'NCT01730859', 'briefTitle': 'The Effect of Ankle Taping and Balance Exercises on Postural Stability', 'organization': {'class': 'OTHER', 'fullName': 'Zahedan University of Medical Sciences'}, 'officialTitle': 'The Effect of Ankle Taping and Balance Exercises on Postural Stability Indices in Healthy Women', 'orgStudyIdInfo': {'id': '90-2339'}}, 'armsInterventionsModule': {'armGroups': [{'type': 'EXPERIMENTAL', 'label': 'Balance exrercise and ankle taping', 'description': 'Balance Exercises:Balance exercises for 6 weeks, 3 sessions per week and each session was 40 minutes for training group.\n\nAnkle taping: Ankle joint taping was performed for 6 weeks and was renewed three times a week.', 'interventionNames': ['Other: Balance exercise and ankle taping']}], 'interventions': [{'name': 'Balance exercise and ankle taping', 'type': 'OTHER', 'otherNames': ['Balance Exercises', 'Ankle taping'], 'description': 'Balance Exercises: The first group performed balance exercise which last for six weeks, 3 times a week, and 40 minutes each session.
