BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES: The convolutions generated on the patient's skin with the application of the elastic bandage reduce the pressure on the mechanoreceptors and thus, the nociceptive stimulus. The objective of this study was to compare the effect of the elastic bandage application with the application of the medical tape in myofascial pain in the region of the upper fibers of the trapezius muscle in teachers. METHODS: Participants were assessed using the McGill-Melzack Pain questionnaire and the numeric pain rating scale, palpation for the detection of trigger points, goniometry for shoulder abduction and lateral neck flexion, and the upper trapezius muscle strength test. Participants were randomly divided into two groups. In the first moment, the participants of group A received an application of elastic bandage, with the "Y" technique, and those belonging to group B received the application of the same technique, however, using the medical tape. Both groups were reassessed after teaching class and after 24 hours. Two weeks later, there was the inversion of the materials used. RESULTS: The sample consisted of 16 teachers. Group A had a significant statistical pain reduction, according to the numeric pain rating scale, between the initial assessment and post-application at the first moment (p=0.00) and at the second moment (p=0.02). A similar result was found in group B, according to the numeric pain rating scale, both at the first moment (p=0.01) and at the second moment (p=0.03). In both groups, there was pain attenuation with no significance on the effect of the elastic bandage or the medical tape. CONCLUSION: The application of elastic bandage has the same effect that the medical tape in reducing pain.

“…For example, Kumbrink et al (17) used taping for the muscles and ligaments on the diseased side, which was combined with correction taping on the contralateral fascia in order to achieve relaxation of the important muscles affecting the mandibular movement and improvement of joint mechanics. Bae (31) used KT on the latent myofascial trigger points of the sternocleidomastoid muscle and observed that taping could significantly lower the Visual Analogue scale (VAS) score of the myofascial pain and improve the motion of TMJ. All these findings can be utilized for the improvement of the taping method.…”

Background: Temporomandibular disorder (TMD) is a frequently occurring and common oral and maxillofacial disease with relevant clinical issues (such as pain, clicking sound, and difficulty in opening the mouth). Kinesio taping (KT) is a typical soft tissue taping technique that plays a role in relieving pain, relaxing muscles, and increasing proprioception. Objectives: The study aimed to investigate the function of the KT technique in the rehabilitation of TMD. Methods: In this prospective study, 60 TMD patients (group I disorders, muscle disorders) were recruited from the outpatients of the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of Shanghai First People's Hospital, China, between June 2016 and September 2016 based on the inclusion/exclusion criteria. They were randomly divided into the control, short wave, and taping groups using a random number table, with 20 cases in each group. Different rehabilitation methods were applied according to the grouping. The course of treatment was six days. The estimations of the Fricton craniomandibular index (CMI), Self-Rating Anxiety scale (SAS), and Self-Rating Depression scale (SDS) were conducted in pretherapy and post-treatment by a physician who was blinded to the patients' groups. Results: No significant differences were observed between patients in the three groups (P > 0.05) in pretherapy in the temporomandibular joint dysfunction index (DI), muscle palpation index (PI), CMI, SAS, and SDS. In post-treatment, the CMI in the short wave and taping groups was significantly improved compared to the control group (P < 0.05). The SAS in the taping group improved significantly compared to the control and short wave groups (P < 0.05). The SDS in the short wave group improved significantly compared to the control and taping groups (P < 0.05). Conclusions: Taken together, KT effectively improved the dysfunction and mood of TMD patients with the group I disorders, thereby necessitating further investigation for widespread application.

“…In addition, KT can produce continuous sensory input to the skin sensors, which may relatively suppress the sensory input of pain perception (32). An additional possible explanation for functional performance, disability or improvements in ADL is that application of KT may increase the range of motion of the temporomandibular joint during exercise (33).…”

Low back pain can be treated with a variety of approaches, as described in clinical practice guidelines. The aim of this study was to determine the efficacy of kinesio taping for pain release and functional improvement in people with chronic low back pain. Significant pain relief was achieved in patients with low back pain with kinesio taping treatment, and taping was superior to physical therapies, with improvement in functional movement. Kinesio taping may be a new, simple and convenient choice for intervention in low back pain. Objective: To compare the efficacy of kinesio taping on chronic non-specific low back pain with that of other general physical therapies. Methods: Relevant studies published up to 31 July 2018 were searched in electronic databases (Pub-Med, Web of Science, Science Direct, Physiotherapy Evidence Database (PEDro), Cochrane Library, Wanfang Data, Vip Data and China National Knowledge Infrastructure). The quality of included studies was assessed using a risk of bias assessment tool, as recommended by the Cochrane Collaboration. Data from visual analogue scales and Oswestry Disability Index were extracted as selected outcome indicators. Tests of heterogeneity were performed. Weight ed mean difference (WMD) data with its 95% confidence intervals (95% CI) were used as a measure of effect sizes, in order to pool the results from each included study using either a fixed or random effects model (where appropriate and possible). Results: Eight studies fulfilled the inclusion and exclusion criteria. The quality of included studies was moderate. Patients with chronic non-specific low back pain in the kinesio taping group achieved better pain relief (WMD =-1.22; 95% CI-1.49 to-0.96, I 2 = 91%, p < 0.00001) and activities of daily living (WMD =-7.11; 95% CI-8.70 to-5.51, I 2 = 77%, p < 0.0001) than those in the control group. Conclusion: Kinesio taping may be a new, simple and convenient choice for intervention in low back pain. In the future, we can measure the efficacy about kinesio taping via clinical application in order to prove the possibility of treatment for low back pain.
