This trial tests if a special tape placed on the arm can help reduce pain and improve symptoms in people with cubital tunnel syndrome. It may be a good option if you have arm pain and have not had surgery or certain injections recently.
This study tests Kinesio taping, a specialized tape placed on the skin, to see if it helps reduce pain from trigger points in the upper back muscle. You would receive either the tape or a comparison treatment to see if it eases your neck or shoulder pain.
This study looks at whether wearing special tape (Kinesio Taping) on your hand and fingers can help you use your hand better after surgery for a tendon injury on the top of your hand. It might help reduce swelling and pain and improve your hand function while you heal.
This study tests whether a special elastic tape (Kinesio tape) placed on the forearm can help relieve pain and symptoms caused by lacertus syndrome, a condition where a tissue band presses on a nerve. If you qualify, you will apply the tape at home following a treatment plan, and the researchers will see if it helps.
This study compares two ways of applying kinesiotape (a stretchy tape placed on the skin) to see which works better for carpal tunnel syndrome, a condition that causes numbness, tingling, and pain in the hand. If you have mild to moderate symptoms, this trial might help you find a non-surgical way to feel better.
