Brief Summary

The objective of the study is to find the effectiveness of kinesiotaping on the patient's functional status in non-specific neck pain. This is an RCT in which 26 participants with non-specific neck pain who fulfilled the inclusion criteria were included in the study. Individuals were randomly allocated into two groups (control and experimental) by using a sealed envelope method. The treatment protocol given to the experimental group includes kinesiotaping on upper trapezius muscle using inhibition technique (I-O) along with exercise therapy while in the control group exercise therapy was given alone. Data was collected by using NPRS and NDI. Pre and post assessment was taken on 1 st, 2nd, and 3rd sessions, and each session was 3 days apart. Parametric tests including independent T-test and paired T-test were applied for analyzing normal data. while non-parametric tests including Mann Whitney and Wilcoxon were applied for nonnormal data analysis.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

• numeric pain rating scale

  It is numeric pain rating scale for measuring pain intensity. it ranges from 0-10.In which 0 shows no pain,1-3 (mild pain),4-6(moderate pain) and 10 shows severe pain. As guided by the researcher, pain intensity was marked by the patient

  2 weeks

Secondary Outcomes (1)

• neck disability index scale

  2 weeks

Interventions

Kinesiotaping group OTHER

* HOT PACK (10 MINTS) * TENS(10 MINTS) * STRETCHING EXERCISES(10 reps 3sets) hold for 2 sec * Apply KINESO- TAPE on upper trapezius (from I-O for Inhibition purpose) HOME PLAN OF EXPERIMENTAL GROUP: * SELF STRECHINGS (10 reps 3 sets) * AROMS * NECK ISOMETRICS (10 reps 3 sets)hold for 10 sec (In neck flexion, In neck extension, In side bending) In experimental group kinesiotape was applied on upper trapezius from insertion to origin for inhibition purpose. As it had increased the functional status of the patient. Post -intervention assessment was taken on 1 st, 2nd and 3rd visit.
