Clin Rehabil. 2018 Nov;32(11):1472-1481. doi: 10.1177/026921551878044310 studies were included in this systematic review and meta-analysis which sought to evaluate the effects of kinesiotape intervention in on functional performance results during the Stars Excursion Balance test and vertical jump height test, and on range of motion.

Meta-analyzed data on range of motion demonstrated no significant differences between KT groups and control groups.
