Objective: Exercise is recommended to increase venous refilling time and for restoring the calf muscle pump in chronic venous insufficiency. Several researchers reported positive results on efficacy of kinesiotape application in chronic venous insufficiency. The present study is designed to investigate the efficacy of kinesiotape application when combined to a calf exercise program in patients with chronic venous insufficiency. Material and Methods: A total of 51 patients were included in the study. Participants were randomly divided into three groups. Visual analog pain scale and visual analog general health scale eval--uations, and ankle joint range of motion and isokinetic muscle strength measurements were performed before the treatment. Interventions regarding the groups were as follows: Group 1; the exercise program alone, Group 2; kinesiotape application combined with the exercise program, Group 3; the exercise program with pseudo kinesiotape application. The measurements were repeated four weeks following the interventions. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the demographic data of the patients (p>0.05). In all three groups, the visual analog pain scale scores decreased and the vi--sual analog general health scale scores increased (p˂0.05). The decreasing visual analog pain scale scores in groups 2 and 3 were statistically higher than that of group 1 (p˂0.05). There was no change in the range of motion of the ankle joints after treatment (p˃0.05). Isokinetic plantar muscle strength was increased significantly in all three groups (p˂0.05). However, muscle strength and total work values of Group 2 patients were significantly higher than the other two groups (p˂0.05). Conclusion: Calf exercises are effective in decreasing the symptoms of chronic venous insuffici--ency. This effect can be augmented by kineosiotape application.

“…Chou et al 15 have suggested that KT methods could be an alternative for the classical lymphedema therapies for the patients with lymphedema occured secondary to breast cancer. Aguilar-Ferrándiz et al 16 have applied an KT for mild chronic venous insufficiency. They stated that mixed KT-compression therapy produces a slight improvement in overall health status and may have a placebo effect on venous pain.…”

AbstractÖz Kinesio taping is one of the elastic bandage methods which has been quite popular in the last 20 years and has been applied in various musculoskeletal conditions. Although the mechanism of action is not clear, many theories have been suggested so far. In this case report, we aimed to present the results of kinesiotape application for back pain of the patient with spinal muscular atrophy which is one of the progressive muscular disorders. It was performed for three times with four days interval. Fascial technique B (Space technique) was applied. Reduce of pain was also observed during the subsequent applications. The application of kinesio taping could be beneficial on reducing the pain in patients with progressive muscle diseases.Kinezyoband son 20 yıldır oldukça popüler olan ve çeşitli kas iskelet sistemi hastalıklarında kullanılan elastik bandajlama metodlarından biridir. Mekanizması tam açık değildir fakat bazı teoriler öne sürülmüştür. Bu olgu sunumunda progresif kas hastalıklarından olan spinal musküler atrofili bir hastada gelişen sırt ağrısına uygulanan kinezyoband sonuçlarını sunmayı amaçladık. Kinezyoband dört gün ara ile üç defa olmak üzere fasyal B tekniğiyle uygulandı. Uygulama sonrası ağrıda azalma sağlandı. Kinezyoband uygulaması progresif kas hastalığı olanlarda ağrı azaltılmasında faydalı olabilir.

“…Vários estudos tem mostrado que a aplicação da Kinesio Taping reduz a dor, mas seu mecanismo de ação permanece desconhecido 18-22 . Acredita-se que o estímulo cutâneo promovido pela faixa causa um feedback proprioceptivo cutâneo, reduzindo a dor 21,22 . Todavia, autores sugerem que a aplicação da Kinesio Taping placebo é capaz de reduzir os níveis de dor, provavelmente pelo estímulo visual (cores) que geram expectativas positivas nos resultados de dor 23 .…”

Rev Neurocienc 2014;22(1):66-74 relato de caso 446 RESUMO Objetivo. Avaliar os efeitos do linfotaping na melhora de sintomas vasculares em pacientes com Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne (DMD). Método. Estudo de caso de dois pacientes com DMD, idade de 10 e 15 anos, sexo masculino, cadeirantes, com queixas relacionadas a sintomas vasculares. O programa de tratamento foi composto pela aplicação de Kinesio Taping, na região posterior da panturrilha, por duas semanas, com três trocas de faixas por semana. Os pacientes foram avaliados quanto aos sintomas vasculares pela Escala Numérica, presença e número de ocorrência de câimbras e perimetria e linfedema de membros inferiores. Para análise dos dados foi utilizada a porcentagem de melhora. Resultados. Para paciente I reduziu 80% a sensação de peso, 57% dor, 80% dolorimento, 57% desconforto e 66% formigamento. A câimbra ocorria duas vezes ao dia, reduzindo para nenhum episódio nos dias durante o tratamento. Para paciente II, houve melhora de 100% para dor, dolorimento e formigamento e 66% para desconforto. Paciente II relatou, antes do tratamento, câimbra uma vez ao dia, apresentando apenas um episódio durante todos os dias de tratamento. Houve redução pouco evidente da perimetria. Conclusões. A aplicação da Kinesio Taping mostrou-se eficaz na redução de sintomas vasculares, porém sugere-se tratamento permanente visando a manutenção e melhora de desconfortos vasculares. Unitermos. Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne, Doenças Vasculares, Fisioterapia, Tratamento Citação. Sousa L, Zambinati TN, Vieira GA, Borges JBC, Faria TCC. Kinesio Taping nos sintomas vasculares em pacientes com Distrofia Muscular de Duchenne: relato de caso. ABSTRACTObjective. We evaluated the effects of Kinesio Taping on improving vascular symptoms in patients with DMD. Method. Case study of two patients with DMD, male and age 10 and 15 respectively, wheelchair users with complaints related to vascular symptoms. The treatment program was made by applying Kinesio Taping, by the fan-tape technique in the posterior calf. The treatment lasted two weeks with two changes of taping per week. Patients were asked about vascular symptoms by pain Numeric Scale, number of cramps and perimeter. For data analysis we used the effect improvement by percentage. Results. Patient I had improved 80% of the sense of weight, 57% in pain, 80% in tenderness, 57% in discomfort and 66% in tingling. A cramp occurred 2 times daily and was reduced to any episode during the treatment. For patient II, there was an improvement of 100% for pain, tenderness and tingling and 66% in discomfort. The cramps were reported once a day before treatment, with only one episode during treatment. Conclusions. The application of linfotaping in patients with DMD was effective in reducing vascular symptoms, but we suggest a permanent treatment aimed at the maintenance and improvement of vascular discomforts.
