The Efficacy of Kinesiology Taping in the Treatment of Women With Post–Mastectomy Lymphedema: A Systematic Review

Conclusion: Kinesiology taping effectively treats symptoms related to post–mastectomy lymphedema, and its use can provide an alternative treatment strategy to be used with patients who are noncompliant or have contraindications to traditional lymphedema treatment. Research is still limited, and future research is needed to determine whether and how KT can replace or complement these more conventional treatments.
