“…In a study where pelvic taping was applied to a female collegiate tennis player whose ilium showed excessive anterior tilt, leuko tape (a non-elastic tape) was applied in the direction from ASIS to PSIS to limit anterior pelvic tilt, and the stability of the sacroiliac joint increased 22) . The erector spinae and internal oblique, to which KT was applied in this study, are the muscles that support and stabilize the sacroiliac joint 3) .…”

Abstract.[Purpose] The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of anterior pelvic tilt taping (APTT) on the anterior inclination of the pelvis when Kinesio tape (KT) was applied to the erector spinae and the internal oblique, which are involved in anterior pelvic tilt.[Subjects] Forty asymptomatic adults (twenty-three males and seventeen females) agreed to participate in this experiment.[Methods] First, the pelvic inclination of both sides was measured with a palpation meter (PALM), as the subjects leaned the anterior aspect of their thighs against a stabilizing table, in an upright standing posture. After applying KT to the erector spinae and the internal oblique, the anterior inclination of the pelvis of both sides was measured again.[Results] The anterior inclination of the pelvis of both sides significantly increased when APTT was applied to the erector spinae and the internal oblique in both males and females.[Conclusion] These results suggest that APTT with KT, applied to the muscles involved in anterior inclination, for the purpose of tilting the posteriorly tilted pelvic anteriorly, may change pelvic inclination.
