Kinesio taping or just taping in shoulder subacromial impingement syndrome ?

OBJECTIVE: To verify effects of kinesio taping (KT) in shoulder subacromial
impingement syndrome (SIS) when compared to sham taping applied in the same way
with KT. METHODS: Patients were randomized as group 1
(n = 21) KT
group and group 2 (n = 20) sham-taping group. Taping was applied every three
days, three times during the study period. We assessed all the patients at
baseline, at the end of the taping period (12th day), and at one-month
post-intervention. We assessed pain on the 100 mm visual analog scale (VAS).
Shoulder range of motion (ROM), Constant Scores, and Nottingham Health Profile
(NHP) scores were evaluated. RESULTS: Of the 41 participants, 13 were males (32%)
and 28 were females (68%).
The mean age was 45 +/- 15 years (range 20-65 years).
We documented a significant decrease in VAS for nocturnal pain, and Constant
Score in both groups. The KT group showed additional significant change in NHP
pain and physical activity scores. CONCLUSION: KT and sham taping generated
similar results regarding pain and Constant Scores.
