Cutaneous stimulation from patella tape causes a differential increase in vasti muscle activity in people with patellofemoral pain

Reads0
Chats0
TLDR
Application of stretch to the skin over VMO via the tape can increase VMO activity, suggesting that cutaneous stimulation may be one mechanism by which patella taping produces a clinical effect.

Pain and motor control: From the laboratory to rehabilitation.

TL;DR: An expanded theory of the motor adaptation to pain is described, based on clinical and experimental data, that provides guidance for rehabilitation directed at alleviating a mechanical contribution to the recurrence and persistence of pain that must be balanced with other aspects of a multifaceted intervention that includes management of psychosocial aspects of the pain experience.

Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (PFPS): a Systematic Review of Anatomy and Potential Risk Factors

TL;DR: A comprehensive review of knee anatomy will present the relationships of arterial collateralization, innervations, and soft tissue alignment to the possible multifactoral mechanism involved in PFPS, while attempting to advocate future use of different treatments aimed at non-soft tissue causes of PFPS.

Patellar taping, patellofemoral pain syndrome, lower extremity kinematics, and dynamic postural control.

TL;DR: Although patellar taping seemed to reduce pain and improve SEBT performance of participants with PFPS, the exact mechanisms of these phenomena cannot be explained in this study.
