    Re: Ankle instability

    Here is a recent systematic review on the topic of functional and mechanical ankle instability. Not suprisingly their conclusion states there is a lack of quality evidence for most conservative measures. My sense is that taping is likely to assist with mechanical instability but may not be theoretically useful for functional instability as it seems to actually impair proprioceptive sense rather than enhance it (as the article above suggests).
