Short-term effect of kinesiology taping on pain, functional disability and lumbar proprioception in individuals with nonspecific chronic low back pain: a double-blinded, randomized trial

ConclusionKT can decrease pain and disability scores after 3  days of application. Although placebo taping can reduce pain, the effect of KT is higher than placebo taping. The findings do not support the therapeutic effect of KT and placebo taping as a tool to enhance lumbar proprioception in patients with nonspecific CLBP.Trial registrationThe study prospectively registered on 21.05.2018 at the Iranian Registry of Clinical Trials:IRCT20090301001722N20.
