This study tests whether a special athletic tape applied to your calf muscle affects how well the muscle uses oxygen, your pain sensitivity, and muscle function. Researchers want to understand if this tape could help with muscle performance and comfort.
This study tests if a special tape (called Kinesio tape) placed on your lower back helps reduce pain, tiredness, and helps you sleep better. It's for nurses who work in the operating room.
This study tests whether kinesiotaping (a special elastic tape placed on the back) can improve posture and balance in people with an exaggerated upper back curve (hyperkyphosis). It may help you if you have poor posture or back pain and meet the age and curve requirements.
This study tests whether a combination of Kinesio taping (a type of elastic tape applied to the back) and Schroth therapy (specialized exercises for scoliosis) can help reduce pain in young adults with mild to moderate idiopathic scoliosis. If you are between 18 and 30, have a curve of 10–30 degrees, and have had recent back pain, this trial may be an option for you.
This study tests if kinesio taping (a special elastic tape placed on the skin) can help relieve pain from trigger points in the upper shoulder muscle. You will receive the taping as part of the treatment, and the study will see how it affects your pain.
This study tests if kinesiology tape (a special stretchy tape placed on the skin) can help relieve pain and improve movement in people with sudden, short-term low back pain. It may be an option if your pain just started and you haven't had long-term back issues.
