Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of KT on archery athletes' performance.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Archery is a sport that requires strength, endurance, stabilization, and coordination of the upper body and shoulder girdle muscles. Kinesio taping (KT), which increased in popularity with the use in the athletes in the 2008 summer Olympics, is commonly investigated in the literature. KT is claimed to reduce pain and edema, increase functional performance, joint position sense, and blood-lymph flow, provide stability, and improve range of motion, flexibility, and strength. The aim of the study is to investigate the effects of KT on archery athletes' performance.
