Brief Summary

We wiil evaluate the efficiency of adding kinesio taping (KT) therapy to dry needling (DN) therapy on pain, functionality and depression parameters in 60 patients with nonspecific chronic low back pain (nCLBP).

Conditions

Non-Spesific Chronic Low Back Pain

Keywords

Dry needling; Kinesiotape; Low-back pain

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (4)

• Pain pressure threshold

  Amount of pressure (Kg/cm2) applied at the lomber multifidus muscle, quadratus lumborum and gluteus medius muscle myofascial trigger point site that elicit pain for the patient will be reported

  3 week

• Pain by visual analog scale (VAS)

  Visual analog scale (VAS,0-10) will be used to assess resting, activity and night pain.

  3 week

• Oswestry disability Index (ODI)

  Changes from the Baseline, ODI is an effective tool to provide information on the extent of backache affecting the patient ability to cope with tasks of everyday life. Ten sections are included in the ODI tool with a total possible score of 5 for each section. The first statement carries a score of 0, and the last has a score of 5.

  3 week

• Beck Depression Inventory

  This is a 21-item standard assessment used to measure clinical depression. Scores on this assessment range from 0 to 63, where higher scores indicate higher levels of depression.

  3 week

Study Arms (2)

DN plus KT group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

DN plus KT therapy is going to be applied 3 sessions in 1-week intervals. Dry Needling Theraphy: DN therapy is going to be applied on active myofascial trigger points (MTrP) in quadratus lumborum, gluteus medius and lumbar multifidus muscles. Kinesio Taping Application: Tapes is going to be left on the patient's body for 5 days.

Device: Dry needling

DN group

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

DN will be applied 3 sessions in 1-week intervals. Dry Needling Theraphy: DN therapy was applied on active myofascial trigger points (MTrP) in quadratus lumborum, gluteus medius and lumbar multifidus muscles.

Device: Dry needling

Interventions

Dry needling DEVICE

DN and KT therapy will be applied 3 sessions in 1-week intervals

Also known as: Kinesiotape

DN group; DN plus KT group
