In the case of normal walking patterns, the angle of plantarflexion (PF) at heel contact should be 0 to 5 degrees, the angle of dorsiflexion (DF) in the terminal stance should be 10 degrees, and the angle of PF should be 15-20 degrees when the heel off. A therapist can apply a voodoo flossing to enhance range of motion (ROM), pain control, jumping performance, strength, myofascial release, and recovery from fatigue. This study compared the immediate effects of voodoo flossing application on ankle ROM, balance, and gait ability in stroke patients. Outcome measures were ankle ROM, weight bearing lunge test (WBLT) performance, static balance (one leg test), dynamic balance(Y-balance test) and gait ability. Outcome measures were assessed at baseline and immediately after applying the voodoo flossing.
