Comparison of effects of Mulligan taping and Kinesio taping on ankle neuromuscular control in response to a sudden inversion perturbation in individuals with chronic ankle instability

•Mulligan taping (MT) and Kinesio taping (KT) are used to prevent ankle sprains.•Unexpected inversion perturbation is a task that closely mimics lateral ankle sprain.•KT and MT affect neuromuscular control in response to a sudden perturbation.•However, behavior of KT and MT appears to be somewhat different from each other.
