Effects of Kinesio Taping® on knee function and pain in athletes with patellofemoral pain syndrome
TL;DR: KT application over VMO can decrease pain and improve the functional performance, generally and quadriceps muscle strength, particularly, in athletes with PFPS, however, more research is needed to evaluate the long-term effects.

Kinesiotaping as an alternative treatment method for carpal tunnel syndrome.
Duygu Geler Külcü,Canan Bursali,Ilknur Aktas,Selin Bozkurt Alp,Feyza Unlu Ozkan,Pinar Akpinar +5 more
TL;DR: KT application for the treatment of CTS should be an alternative treatment choice, and there was a significant difference among the groups with respect to BQ scores.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term effects of kinesio tape on joint position sense, isokinetic measurements, and clinical parameters in patellofemoral pain syndrome.
TL;DR: Although short-term kinesio tape application did not increase hamstring muscle strength, it may have improved joint position sense, pain, kinesiophobia, symptoms, and daily limitations.

Acute effects of Kinesio taping on knee extensor peak torque and stretch reflex in healthy adults
Simon S. Yeung,Ella W. Yeung +1 more
TL;DR: The findings suggest that the direction of KT application over the muscle has specific effects on muscle performance.

Efectos inmediatos del kinesio taping en la flexión lumbar
TL;DR: Whether the application of Kinesio taping increases trunk flexion compared with theApplication of placebo bandages and conventional adhesive bandages is analyzed and in which segments this possible increase occurs is studied.

Changes in muscle responses to stimulation of the motor cortex induced by peripheral nerve stimulation in human subjects.
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that in normal human subjects the excitability of the cortical projection to hand muscles can be altered in a manner determined by the peripheral stimulus applied.

The Effects of Kinesio™ Taping on Proprioception at the Ankle
TL;DR: The physiological responses in this study were less severe during a MS test than those reported during an incremental Balke treadmill test, and suggests that MS tests may be an acceptable method to assess the maximal strength of patients with moderate heart failure.

Changes in ankle joint proprioception resulting from strips of athletic tape applied over the skin.
TL;DR: It is concluded that increased cutaneous sensory feedback provided by strips of athletic tape applied across the ankle joint of healthy individuals can help improve ankle joint position perception in nonweightbearing, especially for a midrange plantar-flexed ankle position.

Does taping influence electromyographic muscle activity in the scapular rotators in healthy shoulders
TL;DR: The results of the investigation revealed no significant influence of tape application on EMG activity in the scapular muscles in healthy subjects and future research will be necessary to examine other parameters of neuromuscular control in order to determine possible proprioceptive changes in muscle recruitment with tape application.
Journal ArticleDOI
Cutaneous stimulation from patella tape causes a differential increase in vasti muscle activity in people with patellofemoral pain
TL;DR: 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.
