Brief Summary

Objective: Compare the benefits of Kinesio Taping and Inhibitory Treatment Techniques for Cervical, Thoracic and Lumbar Spine in Patients with Fibromyalgia Syndrome (FMS). Study Design: A single-blind randomized controlled trial was conducted on patients with FMS. Setting: Clinical setting. Methods: Sixty-four subjects with FMS were randomly assigned to an experimental group receiving kinesio taping and inhibitory treatment techniques, or to a control group for exercises and electrical stimulation therapy.

Kinesio Taping and Inhibitory Treatment Techniques

EXPERIMENTAL

During each session participants will receive the application kinesio taping in trapezius, infraspinatus and paravertebral muscles. Inhibitory Treatment Techniques: * Release Technique of the trapezius muscle. * Release Technique for scalene muscles. * Technique suboccipital inhibition. * Technique hands crossed for induction dorsal superficial fascia.

Other: Kinesio Taping and Inhibitory Treatment Techniques

Exercise and Electrical Stimulation Therapy

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Session for general physical activities (joint mobility, muscle strength and elasticity), and electrical stimulation therapy on para vertebral muscles.

Other: Exercise and Electrical Stimulation Therapy
