简要总结
This study aimed to compare the effectiveness of massage and Kinesio taping on pain, range of motion, disability and quality of life in patients with chronic neck pain.
详细描述
Neck pain is a common condition, affecting 30% to 50% of the general population, and is most prevalent in middle age.33 It is usually accompanied by a substantial effect on daily life, resulting in an extensive use of health care resources.
Several physical therapy applications such as massage therapy, kinesio taping, thermal and electrophysiological agents, hydrotherapy/spa therapy, and therapeutic exercises especially neck stabilization exercise are used to manage FM. Both massage therapy and kinesio taping have a favorable effect on clinical symptoms. However, it is not clear which method is more effective. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the effectiveness of massage and Kinesio taping on pain, range of motion, disability and quality of life in patients with chronic neck pain.

结局指标
主要结局
Pain Level (Visual Analog Scale)
时间窗: change from baseline at 4 weeks
The pain level was assessed with the Visual Analog Scale, which consists of a horizontal line of 10 cm in length. For pain level assessment, "0" defines "no pain" and "10" defines "unbearable pain''. The participants are asked to mark the intensity of their pain level.
次要结局
- Turkish version of Neck Disability Index(change from baseline at 4 weeks)
- Turkish of the Short Form-36(change from baseline at 4 weeks)
- Range of Motion(change from baseline at 4 weeks)
