Kinesio Taping for Congenital Torticollis in Children
Part of Genetic & congenital clinical trials.
This study tests whether Kinesio Taping, a special supportive tape, can help improve neck motion in children with Congenital Muscular Torticollis. If your child has this condition and is otherwise healthy, this treatment might be an option.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Your child has been diagnosed with Congenital Muscular Torticollis (a tight neck muscle causing head tilt).
- Your family agrees to take part in the study.
- Your child does not have any heart or lung disease or bone/muscle problems that would prevent safe exercise.
- Your child does not have an open wound or allergy to tape in the area where the taping would be applied.

This study compares in-person physical therapy versus video-based therapy at home for babies with a tight neck muscle (torticollis). The goal is to see if remote therapy works as well as coming to the clinic, so families can have more flexible options.
This study tests whether a weight shift training can help babies with congenital muscular torticollis (a tight neck muscle that causes the head to tilt) improve symmetry in how they bear weight on their arms while lying on their stomach. It may help with neck and arm development.

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 if kinesio taping helps teenagers with mild scoliosis (a spinal curve) improve their condition. It might be an option for those with a single curve in the upper back.
This study tests whether a special sticky tape on the back (kinesio taping) can help children with pneumonia breathe better. It is for children ages 4–7 who are in the hospital and have no other chest issues.
