Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of wrist range of motion.

    Change of wrist dart throwing motion (DTM- radial extansion to ulnar flexion movement of wrist) angle.

    Change of wrist DTM from baseline at the end of 30 minutes of each kinesiotaping intervention.

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Change of wrist functional performance.

    Change of MMDT scores from baseline at the end of 30 minutes of each kinesiotaping intervention.

Interventions

KinesiotapingOTHER

Kinesio tape (KT) is the original elastic adhesive tape for injury prevention, rehabilitation, and performance enhancement. Kinesio Tape is latex-free, hypoallergenic and wearable for days at a time. It has been shown to be clinically effective in joint range of motion promotion,increasing muscle activity and functional performance.
