“…Kaya et al [42] reported that applying kinesiology tape to the supraspinatus of patients with SIS improved pain and arm function due to the increased recruitment of motor units to the supraspinatus. Lyman et al [43] reported that applying kinesiology tape to the deltoid increased the acromiohumeral distance. This may have been due to the occurrence of gliding, instead of translation toward the acromion, from the force couple during glenohumeral abduction after kinesiology tape application to the deltoid [33], which may have increased the acromiohumeral distance.…”

Background and objectives: Shoulder impingement syndrome (SIS) is the most common disorder among people with shoulder pain. The purpose of this case report was to investigate the effect of the combined application of balance taping using kinesiology tape and cross taping on a part-time worker with SIS. Case Report: Combined balance taping and cross taping was applied for 3 weeks (average, 16 hours per day) on a part-time worker with severe pain and a limited range of motion (ROM) in the shoulder who had visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores of 7 and 8 out of 10 for shoulder flexion and abduction, respectively, and pain and disability scores of the Shoulder Pain Disability Index (SPADI) of 37 out of 50 and 29 out of 80, respectively. After the combined application of balance taping and cross taping, the VAS pain scores for shoulder flexion and abduction decreased from 7 to 0 and from 8 to 0, respectively, and the ROM increased to a normal range. The SPADI pain score decreased from 37 to 2, and the disability score decreased from 29 to 1. Shoulder activity level also increased, and the patient was able to return to his part-time job. Conclusions: We suggest combined application of balance taping and cross taping as an effective treatment for part-time workers with SIS.

“…Previous studies have reported that elastic taping may improve the AHD (Harput et al, 2017;Luque-Suarez et al, 2013;Lyman et al, 2017) and shoulder proprioception (Burfeind and Chimera, 2015) in healthy individuals. Very few, however, have examined the effects of kinesiotaping on shoulder proprioception in individuals with RCTe, and none has investigated its effects on the AHD in this population.…”

“…Proper shoulder kinematics are necessary to prevent the subacromial pain syndrome (most often referred to as shoulder impingement syndrome), one of the most frequent injuries in overhead athletes ( Bigliani & Levine, 1997 ; Thelen, Dauber & Stoneman, 2008 ; Şimşek et al, 2013 ; Juel & Natvig, 2014 ). This syndrome takes place when the acromiohumeral distance (AHD), the distance between the upper part of the shoulder head and the acromion ( Luque-Suarez et al, 2013 ), is narrowed as a result of damage of the bursa or the supraspinatus tendon ( Lyman et al, 2017 ). Intrinsic and extrinsic mechanisms have been directly related to reducing this space, as well as the modified shoulder kinematics and the overactivation of the deltoid and supraspinatus ( Solem-Bertoft, Thuomas & Westerberg, 1993 ; Michener, McClure & Karduna, 2003 ; Lyman et al, 2017 ).…”

Background Subacromial pain syndrome is one of the most frequent injuries in overhead athletes, and it takes place when the acromiohumeral distance (AHD) is narrowed. Conservative treatment is the first approach to this syndrome, being shoulder taping one of the most used techniques. Although there are quite a few studies that analyse the effect of taping on the AHD, most of them do not include sham tapings. This study aimed to examine if the Relocation of the humeral head (RHH) taping produced an increase in the AHD in healthy recreationally weightlifter males, quantifying the change that may be due to a placebo effect. Methods The design of this study was a two-group pretest-posttest, in which eighteen healthy recreationally weightlifter males were measured. in a laboratory of the University of Valencia. RHH using rigid or sham taping was randomly applied to the participants. The AHD was measured and registered before and after the application of the taping for both groups by a blinded examiner using ultrasound. Results There were no significant differences between pre and post measures in the sham group (p = 0.51). The experimental group showed a significant AHD increase of 9.2% (10.75 ± 1.89 vs 11.74 ± 1.82, respectively, with p < 0.001). Significant differences in the effects of each taping on the AHD were found between groups (p < 0.001). The results of this study indicate that the RHH rigid taping increases the AHD in the shoulders of recreationally weightlifters, dismissing the possibility of a placebo effect of the taping.
