The objective of this randomized clinical trial is to evaluate the effects of kinesio taping on ankle joint position sense of healthy untrained female during menstruation. In this study 40 healthy women with a regular menstrual cycle in past 3 months and normal bleeding cycle (4 up to 7 days) will be recruited and randomly assigned into intervention or control group. The subjects in the intervention group will receive one session of kinesiotaping of ankle joint. The subjects in control group will receive no intervention. Mean of standard error of ankle joint reconstruction angle will be measured before the intervention, immediately after and after 48 hours , and will be compared between 2 groups.
