Objective: In order to study the effect of Taping Therapy for Increasing the weight loading on Affected Leg of Hemiparesis, a clinical study was performed. Method: Tapes were applied on gluteus medius and quadriceps femoris muscle. Weight loading on the Affected Leg of Hemiparesis was measured by two digital scales at before and after, after 30 minites, after 1 hour of treatment. From each score of two scales, we calculate the percentage of Weight loading on the Affected Leg of hemiparesis. Result: (1)Case 1: Only the percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased(from $47.38{\pm}0.99$ to $46.36{\pm}1.2$(p<0.05)) (2)Case 2: The percentage of Weight loading measured both after treatment and after 30 minute is effectively increased(the one is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $12.04{\pm}1.717$ and the other is increased from $10.75{\pm}0.476$ to $15.09{\pm}2.454(p<0.05)$) (3)Case 3: The percentage of Weight loading measured at all times is effectively increased. (the one after treatment is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $29.55{\pm}2.296$. the one after 30 minutes. is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $45.40{\pm}0.86$, from the one after 1 hour is increased from $31.59{\pm}0.606$ to $52.70{\pm}0.541$(p<0.05)) Conclusion: (1)The percentage of Weight loading measured after treatment is effectively increased (2)The percentage of Weight loading measured after 30 minutes and 1 hour is effectively increased, so it means Taping Therapy is continueously effective. (3)The percentage of Weight loading is especialy increased when the Percentage of weight loading is near 30%
